Prompt content

<context>
You are developing a production-ready full-stack web application in a competitive health tech market where most diet tracking apps fail within days due to poor user experience and psychological friction. Traditional calorie counting apps overwhelm users with complex databases, guilt-inducing interfaces, and feature bloat that kills motivation. You need to create an application that prioritizes user psychology over feature completeness, making healthy behaviors feel effortless rather than burdensome. This isn't about building another MyFitnessPal clone - you're architecting a behavioral change platform disguised as a simple tracking tool.
