MealQuest
MealQuest is a mobile-first Progressive Web App for weekly dinner planning for one household. The household lists the dinners it makes regularly, an AI assistant suggests new dinners to try (swipe "Try it" or "Pass"), and the app builds a weekly plan, pushes it to Google Calendar, and generates a shopping list grouped by dinner, kept as a browsable weekly history. It ships as a single Go service with the React PWA embedded in the binary.
Status: this repository is the Feature 01 scaffold (Go service with
/health, embedded PWA skeleton, Makefile, Dockerfile, CI). The planned application is described in docs/ARCHITECTURE.md.
Quick start
Requirements: Go 1.25 and Node.js ^22.22.2 || ^24.15.0 || >=26.0.0 — that
is, 22.22.2 or later on the 22 line, 24.15.0 or later on the 24 line, or 26.0.0
or later. Node.js 23, 24.0–24.14 and 25 are not supported: this is the
engines range of jsdom in the committed lockfile, the strictest of all the
web dependencies.
(cd web && npm ci)
mkdir -p ~/.mealquest-dev # outside the repository: it holds a secret
chmod 700 ~/.mealquest-dev
head -c 32 /dev/urandom | base64 > ~/.mealquest-dev/secret_key
chmod 600 ~/.mealquest-dev/secret_key
export MEALQUEST_HTTP_ADDR=:8080
export MEALQUEST_PUBLIC_URL=http://localhost:5173
export MEALQUEST_DATA_DIR="$HOME/.mealquest-dev"
export MEALQUEST_SHUTDOWN_TIMEOUT=10s
export MEALQUEST_SECRET_KEY_FILE="$HOME/.mealquest-dev/secret_key"
make dev
make dev runs the Go server on :8080 and the Vite dev server on :5173
(which proxies /api, /auth and /media to :8080). Open
http://localhost:5173. Configuration is environment-only and fails fast:
every variable above is required, and secrets are read only from files named
by *_FILE variables.
