Recipix is a cross-platform mobile application that allows a user to virtually keep track of items in their fridge. Users may add items from their fridge via barcode scanning, and the app generates a list of recipes they can create based on those ingredients. Users may filter recipes based on specific ingredients. Recommended recipes show step-by-step instructions as well as any missing ingredients. This app was created in 2.5 weeks in an agile team of 4 for a capstone project.

About Me

Hi! I’m Chris Chin, a full-stack web developer and software engineer based in Brooklyn, NY. After working as an accountant for almost 7 years, I’ve decided to take the leap to pursue a career in software engineering. I’ve enrolled in a full-time immersive software engineering program at Fullstack Academy in NYC. Having just graduated from this rigorous program, I can say that applying to a coding bootcamp has been the best decision I have ever made in my life. I love to learn new technologies and flex my creativity to create amazing things.

Hobbies & Interests

Besides my passion for coding, I love to play video games, specifically RPGs and MMORPGs. I also love to travel, swim, and jog. I'm a Netflix and Hulu binger. I am a huge fan of Harry Potter. On Wednesdays, you can find me yelling at my TV when my favorite Survivor castaway gets voted off the island. My favorite foods are phở and sushi.
