Hey all, I’m trying to be a little more economical and reduce the amount of food I waste, and was wondering if there were any open-source apps that can track the best-before dates of the foods I buy so I can improve my meal-planning.

I saw that there’s Best-Before on F-Droid, but the last release was in July 2022, and I was curious if there was something more actively maintained.

      I have used this before, but I stopped using it. It’s complicated while simultaneously also missing features.

      I like grocy, it is very feature rich. You can document expiration dates, shopping lists, storage locations, supermarkets, prices, bar codes and more. It has an android app that works well and supports most of the webui features.

      On the other hand it’s a big clunky php app. After having to move it somewhere else it didn’t feel like migrating it and just gave up on it. I geniunely wish there was a single executable sqlite alternative or something that just syncs up in the network with a desktop app.
