The History
MyTaste is a responsive recipe web app designed to provide users with a personalized and interactive cooking experience. The platform focuses on helping users discover diverse recipes, find alternative cooking methods, and connect with a community of like-minded individuals. Users can easily organize their favorite recipes, track their cooking journey, and share culinary insights with friends and groups.
UI Design | UX Research: The MyTaste responsive web app was developed as part of a UX/UI course at Career Foundry. Our task was to identify a problem and design a digital product to solve it.
The Problem
Users are unhappy because they have to visit multiple recipe sites since there isn't one place that meets all their needs. Existing sites lack customization for their experience level, learning style, diet, and health requirements. Users also want to connect and communicate better with other cooks.
The Solution
Build a recipe website that suits cooks of all levels and dietary preferences. Let users personalize their experience by selecting their likes, skills, and dietary requirements. Add a discussion platform and enhanced rating system like those on Amazon, Poshmark, and Goodreads for user interaction and better recipe categorization.
Discover top-rated recipes from the vibrant MyTaste community.
