Requirements
Brainstorming
In the first stage of our prototyping process, we thought about what our end-users would like in our app and the gaps in existing nutrition apps that were possibly worth filling.
We then classified them according to 3 tiers:
Essential: Features that were critical for our app to have.
Typical: Features that competing apps commonly would have.
Novel: Features that competing apps didn't have/could have implemented better.

Prototyping the User Interface
Before we got to writing code, we thought it would be prudent to get a clear idea of what we wanted our app to look like first.
Thus, we drafted some screens that our final app would have using Figma.
