Worth It

A two-hour hackathon prototype that ranks indulgent food near a visitor by calories and turns local discovery into a bold leaderboard.

Focus: Two-hour hackathon · Local discovery
Tools: React · TypeScript · Next.js

Worth It opening screen with a large burger, the line 'If you're going to indulge, make it count,' and a find-food action. — The real Worth It opening screen, captured from the local two-hour hackathon build.

Built a location-first entry flow with browser geolocation, a typed-city fallback, and selectable one-, five-, or ten-kilometre search radii. Created a calorie leaderboard with category filters, nutrition summaries, restaurant details, and an accessible detail sheet. Connected the interface to an Express backend that discovers nearby restaurants, inspects public menu evidence, and ranks high-calorie meals while labeling estimates clearly.
