FF: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/recipe-filter/ https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/recipe-filter... Source code (there's Safari in there if you don't mind building it yourself): https://github.com/sean-public/RecipeFilter https://github.com/sean-public/RecipeFilter I was spurred into action by a comment here on HN back in 2017: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15755378 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15755378 It got demoed to the world during WWDC 2020, which was really neat: https://youtu.be/Kwh2y6VkzoA https://youtu.be/Kwh2y6VkzoA

Is it not on the safari 'store' because of the $99 a year?

  Not the OP, but I maintain an extension for using keyboard and mouse on Xbox xCloud. I'd love to support Safari, and like OP I have it technically working as well, but as the extension is free and open source it's hard to justify the $99 price tag just to share it with the world. https://github.com/idolize/xcloud-keyboard-mouse/issues/13 https://github.com/idolize/xcloud-keyboard-mouse/issues/13

Thanks for creating this! I use this plugin all the time. I often don't remember it's running, but then I invariably land on a recipe site, and then the Recipe Filter modal pops up, and instantly brings a smile to my face.

This extension is wonderful! Using it for a few months. It's refreshing to go to a recipe page and actually see the recipe :-D

Funny running into you here! I'm the 'maintainer' of the Firefox version (it doesn't take much work.) I just got a request to do imperial to metric conversion, which I had to politely decline based on the idea of looking up the density of every ingredient involved; not to mention writing an actual parser for recipies proved to be quite a challenge given the wide diversity of how the recipes are layed out.

  I get loads of really kind emails and messages on a daily basis from the users. It's been really rewarding in that way. A couple ideas that people have put forth seem really reasonable, such as unit conversions, print-friendly pages, and automatic nutrition labels. In fact, I'd actually love those too as a cook! One feature that would improve the recipe recognition and unlock lots of other features where it's found would be JSON-LD support. I'm seeing lots of recipe pages containing those handy, structured formats lately. A comment about JSON-LD: https://github.com/sean-public/RecipeFilter/issues/22#issuecomment-648341619 https://github.com/sean-public/RecipeFilter/issues/22#issuec... But all of these things stray from the fundamental simplicity of what it does. The code is just 92 lines of JS and works (or breaks!) transparently. If I started adding features, it would quickly become another complex system to maintain and I have plent of that at work ;)

Woah nice, just installed it! Perfect, thank you so much. I don't care for the life stories and pseudo deep insights, I wanna cook and eat stuff.
