Backend Programmer Food for Kids, Java and Apache POI 09/2021 |
- Programmed a Java automation script to write weekly meal plans on Microsoft Excel, that enabled a local daycare business to automate its menu planning based on their available groceries. - Designed the program to handle dozens of input files, resulting in an application that provides three randomized nutritionally balanced meals for each day of a week for children and ensures that no child gets served the same meal twice in a row. - Ensured system adhered to federal and New Mexico state guidelines for daily nutrition, enabling real-world use of the system. - Updated and expanded the automation system for use at other independent daycare businesses in the Albuquerque area. |
