Hey everyone! I'm new to programming and my boss has asked me to create a program or a website that tracks product expiration dates at my grocery store. The idea is that I can input an article along with its expiration date, and then the program should send reminders 8 weeks and 4 weeks before the product expires. I want these reminders to stay active until I dismiss them. Is this something that's easy to code? What tools and programming languages would you recommend for someone just starting out? Thanks in advance! (I'm at work right now)

Have you thought about using existing reminder or calendar apps? There are even some specifically for tracking food expiration dates, like Fridgely. If you're new to this, I'd recommend checking those out before trying to build your own. It’s doable, but there’s a lot to learn if you go the coding route.
Honestly, if you're just starting out, creating this from scratch might be a bit tricky. Basic HTML, CSS, and JavaScript could work, but it might take some time to get comfortable with them. It’s not impossible, but be prepared for a learning curve!
You might want to consider using an open-source calendar app instead of building one from the ground up. There are tons of them available online that you can modify to fit your needs without starting from scratch.
