# django-calories-log
Simple app for having your own nutrition diary. Works only in modern browsers (FF, Chrome)
Demo: https://nutricalc.mooserv.org/
[](https://codeclimate.com/github/koriaf/django-calories-log)
## Why do it?
Because I hate all existing ones. They are too complex, too slow and too unpleasant for me. I failed to find anything suits my needs for 100%.
And because I want to try React and unidirectional data flow model. And just practicize with JavaScript and try some new stuff.
I am just playing with JS and React/flux so there are some ugly code and prototypes. I'll deal with it later. Now it just works and already fulfill my needs quite well. One problem - I wasn't able to find good free-licenced russian food database.
## Developers howto
It uses python3 and latest Django version (I am going to keep it updated). Pep8 line length is 120 characters, everything else the same as usual.
