Tasty Recipe Creations

Description

I collaborated in a group project to develop an iOS app called Tasty Recipe Creations that helps users discover and save recipes. I contributed to the planning, wireframing, and development of user stories and interfaces. We used Figma, Xcode, and Parse Server to create a prototype and implement features such as user login, recipe posting, recipe feed, recipe search, and favorite recipe list.
