The original idea was born out of my own struggle to find a dieting app that fit my style - something that allowed me to quickly log calories without tedious manual entry. And now, I'm excited to share Quick Calories with HN!

What is Quick Calories?

- A minimalist app that makes calorie tracking lightning fast.

- It keeps a running calorie total and automatically resets daily. Just track your intake and move on with your life.

- The math-friendly input lets you perform arithmetic operations on calorie counts, making it easier to log complex meals or snacks.

As someone who spends hours staring at screens, I know how hard it is to prioritize health when work-life balance feels like an oxymoron. Quick Calories can be an indispensable tool for a busy software engineer.

I'd love to see more software engineers using Quick Calories to improve their health and I'm excited to continue improving and expanding the app based on your feedback. Let me know what you think!
