## Introduction

This project is a Food Recipes Rating System that utilizes sentiment analysis to rate reviews. Reviews are analyzed using an LSTM model to determine their sentiment, which then translates into a numerical rating from 1 to 5. The system is built using Django for the backend, and it incorporates NLTK and Scikit-learn for natural language processing and machine learning.



## Features

- User authentication using GitHub OAuth

- Recipe posting with detailed descriptions and images

- Review submission with sentiment-based rating (1 to 5)

- Sentiment analysis using a custom LSTM model

- Email notifications through Google API
