Building Serverless Calorie tracker application with AWS AppSync and Amazon Neptune

Overview

In this workshop, you will build a serverless Calorie tracker application that will allow users to setup a daily calorie target goal, allows them to add, update and track the calories consumed or burned daily, and receive food suggestions based on their food habits.

Some of the features that you would be building in your app today are:

  • User sign-up, login and logout.
  • Set personal information like calorie target per day, height, weight etc.
  • Track activities through out the day, like:
    • add calories (breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks) and
    • burn calories (workout, walk, run)
  • View food suggestions based on the activities and personal information (BMI).
