What is Waistline?

Waistline is a comprehensive calorie counter and weight tracking application designed to help users monitor their dietary intake and weight fluctuations. At its core, the app provides a personal food diary, allowing users to record the foods they consume and track the associated caloric values. Leveraging the Open Food Facts database, the app offers a barcode scanner feature that automatically retrieves detailed nutritional information for scanned products, streamlining the logging process Unique to Waistline is its emphasis on user privacy and data sovereignty. All data is stored locally on the user's device, never shared with external servers or uploaded to the cloud. This ensures complete control over personal information and eliminates concerns about data breaches or unauthorized access. Furthermore, the app is entirely free and open-source, with the source code available on GitHub, providing users with the freedom to review, modify, and distribute the application as they see fit
