Next Steps

During this project, I learned a lot about working on an agile team using the sprint methodology. I worked tirelessly with my group to brainstorm solutions that would alleviate the issues truck drivers face whilst making it a profitable business. It proves to be difficult to help truck drivers as there are still very few options to help them eat better on the road, however since this project took place recipe websites such as AllRecipes have partnered with similar food delivery services like Instacart, offering a less personalized but similar experience.
