    Hello,

    I'd like to introduce Nidi to You. It's an Open Database of Nutrition Facts. Basically for now it's just a web server with only possibility to search for food by it's bar-code.

    It has 21MB. Even compressed so I'd let Avon to decide whether to hatch it to others.

    It's possible to access it from both Web and by Door using Elinks. There is folder bbs in the distribution tree that gives more information to sysops.

    However I'm planning to cut down elinks a bit so it would be possible to use
    it safely as door interface. By now I guess the standard distribution of
    elinks is not really door friendly. Especially despite the OS Shell
    possibility from Menu. So I guess some door-compatible version could be prepared once I'd have some time.

    It should run on both Linux and Windows (possibly Raspberry Pi). And there should be only one command needed to prepare the system. That's pip install flask.

    It's tested on Python 2.7.5. Not sure if that would run on anything else. But at least I'm distributing the sqlite database for those who are not on the
    same python version.

    This is current screenshots:

    I'd be glad on any feedback.

    Best regards

    Shinobi
