Why it existed

I kept discovering good food places around Singapore, then forgetting them when I was nearby again.

The friction it answered

Food apps are good at search and ratings, but less good at answering: what are my own favourite places near here, and are they open?

What was built

A progressive web app using Svelte, Firebase Authentication, Firestore, Tailwind CSS, and a background scraper that collected Burpple wishlist and venue data.

What it left behind

Archived in 2024, but it remains a good example of building a small personal system around repeated everyday friction.
