Tuko

Tuko is a passion project I’m building alongside a tight-knit team of three. I’ve been deeply exploring the vibecoding approach—collaborating closely with my developers to understand the code, which helps me design with a better grasp of the technical foundation.

At its core, Tuko is about tackling food waste. We’re on a mission to promote conscious consumption by connecting small coffee shops and local cafes with the community. Our platform allows businesses to offer perfectly edible food at a discount right before it’s scheduled to be tossed. It’s a win-win: businesses recover costs, and people save money while helping the planet.

To make the impact more engaging, we’ve integrated gamification and achievements. Since we are still in the building phase, my goal is for Tuko to feel less like a standard utility app and more like a "meaningful game" that drives real-world change.

Here are a few shots from the project:
