| + | Roughly, the project is structured along the following milestones between 2020-03-01 and -08-31: |
| + | |
| + | # '''Definition of requirements.''' In the beginning, it will be decided which information about the storage life of food should be provided via the mobile application. That depends on the practical relevance of the information, on consumer protection regulations and on the details of the cooperation with Open Food Facts. |
| + | # '''Data structure agreement with Open Food Facts.''' Since the collected data on the storage life of food should be contributed to the Open Food Facts database, a suitable data structure is agreed on with the Open Food Facts core team. From what we discussed so far, the core team is generally open to this type of data, but details still need to be discussed and agreed. |
| + | # '''Implementation of the software.''' The planned program functions are first implemented in a copy ("fork") of the Open Food Facts codebase. We will repeatedly seek the opinions of developers from the Open Food Facts team to facilitate the later integration of our code. |
| + | # '''Data research.''' In addition to the implementation of the software, we collect easily available data on the storage life of food items. These should relate to food items that are in widespread use, in order to give the application a high practical value right from the start. |
| + | # '''Integration of the software.''' We contribute our code extensions to the official Open Food Facts Android application, their server software and potentially their web frontend. |
| + | # '''Data entry.''' All collected data is now added to the database via the official Open Food Facts application. It will be possible to contribute data in multiple languages (including German). The initial data entry within the scope of this project will not necessarily consist of only data in German, since Open Food Facts is a worldwide project with English and French as its main languages. |
| + | # '''Implementation for iOS (optional).''' If there is still time available, the same software functions will also be implemented for the Open Food Facts application for Apple iOS devices. |
