UMenu

Advanced search/filter utility for navigating the #1 campus dining.

I made this web app when I was trying to bulk up. I wanted to easily find the highest-calorie items in the dining hall without going through the whole menu by hand.

UMass conveniently posts a detailed menu with nutritional facts on the dining services website. I scraped this content to populate the table, and then provided an interface to perform sorting and filtering on this data. UMenu gives more control over retrieval of menu data than is possible with the regular dining website.

The app is written in JavaScript, so it can be hosted on GitHub Pages as a static site for free. It uses a responsive table layout that transitions into cards on mobile.
