Shopping List App and Social Recipe Sharing Platform
I collaborated with two other developers in a 10 week project to create GroceryGram - a responsive web application that offers users a fresh and innovative way to populate and manage their grocery shopping list through a unique recipe-based approach and engaging social platform.
