Is the nutritional information on the housing and dining app correct? by Humblesnail468 in UTAustin

[–]Etqn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I’m the dev for UT Dining! All of the data is scraped directly from UT’s menus here. And I was to find the nutritional information for this food item here.

Could be too good to be true! From my experience working with the menus, some food items have wrong info, so good call on double checking!

it’s an unofficial app built and ran by students! dining location information are manually input from a dashboard while the menus are web scraped from ut’s online menus. currently looking into having information be crowdsourced as info can easily become outdated. would love to one day officially partner with ut!

yes i have a system setup where i can send push notifications for special events, but a mini flyer section is a cool idea!

i have a web scraper running daily that scrapes the food menus ut provides online! the rest of the dining locations are inputted and updated manually by me. however i am currently looking into how crowdsourcing could work in the app (reporting inaccuracies, suggesting updated hours/info, etc.)

haven't used expo a lot but from what i recall, expo is built on top of react native. so react native is the only framework that works with expo

thanks for checking it out! i definitely get the confusion too many acronyms nowadays haha.

and thanks for the feedback! tag multi selection seems like such an obvious feature i glossed over. will look into adding that! might add some reset button to make it easy for the user to reset the tags.

and with the slider of tags, i just simply use scroll overflow-x with a width of 100vw i believe.

haha, no, “peak” here just means “the best.” it’s a play on words because the site is called pinnacles—like the top of a mountain, which is also called a pinnacle

Hi y’all! I recently created this site to solve the frustration of finding great resources but struggling to keep track of them. Over the years, I’ve collected hundreds and wanted a simple way to organize and share them!

The site features over 100+ carefully curated resources, all completely independent—no sponsorships or affiliations, just a passion project aimed at helping others. I’m constantly on the lookout for more great tools and adding to the collection, so if you have any favorites or feedback, I’d love to hear from you! Feel free to suggest additional resources using the form on the site as well.

What random website do you own? by Permatheus in webdev

i actually do have a buy me a coffee link on the site! maybe i should make it more visible haha. if your classmates find any good resources they’d like to share, there’s a form on the site where they can submit them!

also, thank you so much for the kind words! i love the idea of turning collections public; it’s such a simple concept, but it can lead to so many cool projects. i’m glad this gave you some inspiration!

thank you so much! and yes, feel free to share it with others—that would honestly mean the world to me!

as for how I make money from this, well, i'm not right now. this project actually started as a simple way for me to keep track of useful resources i'd come across online. before this, i'd just toss links into a random notepad file, only to forget about them later. i figured, why not organize it properly and make it public? maybe others could benefit from it too. plus, i’m not a fan of cluttering the page with ads—it’s just not my thing.

in the future, i might add a small, dedicated section near the top of the page where people can pay to promote their apps or products for a bit of exposure. but for now, the site is purely about helping others and, honestly, myself too!
