Yep, i also don't quite understand what needs to be solved here.

I just ask the cashier in the bakery for a half or quarter loaf. Or grab a pre-cut half/quarter one in the supermarket. There are plenty of options (types of bread, sourdough or not, based on different grains, etc) over here in germany.

The experiences of others could be vastly different than yours. A possible answer: the developer has been throwing away bread, and couldn't easily find their favourite bread in smaller quantities in a city in India.

This is what the about page of the site says:

> This website is of course a non-useful, silly little thing. But I hope that it can get people to start thinking about why more stores don't sell half loaves when it seems like a more practical thing to do.

Yes, I guess so. It looks very niche and more like an excuse to build something though :) Nothing wrong with that, however I'd just cut it at home and freeze the rest for later consumption.

Here in New Jersey my local Whole Foods doesn't sell half-loaves anymore. I like some of their breads but I'm not willing to spend $6 for a loaf that I won't be able to finish.

Maybe the bakeries in India don’t offer this service/product for some reason? If so, a website like this could put some pressure on them to introduce half-loaves.

The world is much larger than "Germany". So, plenty of people may have a need for this, even if you don't.
