Meat Coin

I wrote a PWA to help reduce meat consumption. It’s a fairly simple app - you install it, and for every plant-based meal, you get one ‘meat coin’. For every meal with meat, you use one ‘meat coin’. A meal with dairy costs half a meat coin.

Interesting stuff I used:

• IndexedDB (super simple with jakearchibald’s key/val wrapper)
• FitText.js (the adactio version so I don’t need to use jQuery)

• this also includes the sandboxed browser PWAs run in.
