Launching Glutensa: Fast & Privacy-First Gluten Safety PWA

Hi Indie Hackers! 👋
​I built Glutensa to help people with Celiac disease and gluten sensitivity scan food products instantly.
​Most existing safety apps force user registration, feature invasive ads, or lack accurate regional data. Glutensa is a free, lightweight Progressive Web App (PWA) designed to solve this with:
​Instant barcode scanning & local database lookups
​Fallbacks to Open Food Facts API & web-based OCR label extraction
​Zero mandatory registration and offline-first performance
​I recently published a full case study on how I built the architecture on Dev.to. Check it out, try the app at https://glutensa.me, and let me know your thoughts or feedback!
