NutriTrace

NutriTrace is a self-hosted personal nutrition tracker.

  • Productivity
NutriTrace is a self-hosted personal nutrition tracker. Log what you eat in a daily diary with your own meal slots, keep a personal database of foods, meals and recipes, look up products by barcode or name from Open Food Facts and USDA, and set calorie and macro goals with fixed, dynamic or adaptive TDEE modes. It also tracks activity and intermittent fasting, connects to Fitbit (through Google Health), Withings, Garmin and Health Connect, and imports from MyFitnessPal, Lose It, Cronometer and Waistline. Multi-user with OIDC single sign-on, a browser app that keeps working offline, and a native Android app. No telemetry and no accounts on external services; your data stays in your appdata folder. Before the first start, fill in JWT Secret with a long random string, for example the output of openssl rand -base64 48. Insecure Cookies starts at 1 so that signing in works over plain http://

Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.
