Innovative nutritional guidance for stunting prevention: an extreme programming-based development approach
Keywords:
Nutritional Guidance, Stunting Prevention, Extreme Programming, AgileAbstract
The research focused on the global health problem of stunting to provide innovative and personalized solutions to parents or guardians in maintaining their children's health. The XP method was used in the app development to ensure efficient planning, high code quality, and quick response to changes. Test results of the app features included nutritional intake monitoring, reminder notifications, healthy food guidance, and a supportive community forum. The user acceptance evaluation showed a more than 90% satisfaction rate, signaling that the app successfully met user expectations. The contribution of this research lies in providing an effective tool for stunting prevention, accurate information, community support, and a satisfying user experience. As such, this research positively contributes to global efforts to improve children's health and reduce the prevalence of stunting.
