Amazon Meals consists of three user profiles. A Chef who needs to open kitchens to create menus with meals to sell to customers. Chefs also need a way to buy ingredients from Amazon Fresh make the meals. Once a Chef grows in popularity through subscribers, they need to hire Cooks, who would prep meals and cook. Amazon Customers would like to search menus from chefs who have created their own unique recipes.

Amazon Meals Delivery App
I have created Amazon Meals, an extension of the Amazon Fresh platform. Amazon Meals encompasses a gig economy by allowing users to become chefs and create meals to deliver to customers, gaining income. Amazon customers will have the privilege to subscribe to Amazon chef's. The chefs will first buy the ingredients in Amazon Fresh, then cook at a nearby 'Amazon ghost kitchen', and finally have Amazon services deliver the meals to the subscriber's house.
Learning Outcomes:
As a part of research for Amazon Meals, I became a subscriber to Blue Apron for two weeks. By participating in Blue Apron, I was able to know what it's like being a chef. - "It took a long time to cook, but once you know your recipes, the instructions became instant" - AH I've also learned how to code my project in HTML/Tailwindcss in 2 weeks. I was unfamiliar with HTML and CSS, however, Thom's meetings outside of class allowed me to finish my Finals in 1 week and 3 days after Midterms.
