+# Project Description
+
+NutriDiary is a web app made to assist users with calorie tracking and workout logging. It features an adaptive calculator that tracks your calorie consumption and weight, and calculates how many calories you need to eat to lose or gain weight in accordance with your goals. To use the app, simply create an account, enter your weight gain/loss goals, and track your calories and weight each day. The calculator will automatically determine how many calories you'll need to consume daily to reach your goals, and its accuracy will increase over time.
