Limitations and Considerations

• Several features are noted as beta/under heavy development (AI Chatbot, multi-user/family access, Apple Health sync); expect potential breaking changes and migration work during upgrades.
• The project is intended for self-hosting and requires configuring environment variables, database migrations, and optional external API keys for food providers. (raw.githubusercontent.com)
