[[Category:Ongoing Projects]]
== Description ==
make a small web app that returns info about a product. info should be a string of text, as well as a flag (''good/avoid_if_possible/avoid_at_all_costs'' or ''green/orange/red'')
* people with allergies would greatly benefit from this project
* people looking to buy hardware (eg: linux-compatible) could also find it neat
* other uses?
I am aware that other things exist that do more or less the same thing, only they do not allow you to use a custom database/repository (freedom of data!!)
=== Displayed/Saved Data ===
* EAN code
* product description
* company (can be found within GS1 database)
* link/URL
* components (part included in hardware OR ingredients of food)
==== Components ====
* ID
* name
* full description
* flag
* link/URL
== Goal ==
* the user scans the EAN barcode, info is returned either as XML (for use with iPhone/android app) or as HTML (for browser)
* the app should be able to search different "repositories" and assemble the output
* user should be able to edit a product if is not in DB or if data is incomplete/incorrect
* show company ownership from GS1 database, as well as the "company tree" (who really owns the firm selling that product)
== Obstacle ==
* no knowledge in iPhone app development
* no knowledge in Android app development
* lack of motivation to dig into GS1 API (I have it will post it soon) and information about company ownership
== Components ==
* no hardware needed
== Schedule ==
== Participant ==
* [[User:Petaflot]] for base functionality
