The people who use it, love it, but I’m still learning how to tell the story well.
The iOS shortcut instantly turns any recipe page into a consistent, usable cooking experience. I’m open to any feedback/ideas about how to tell that story better!
- deevus 4y agoThis is great. Love the idea. Finding the recipe in a blog post has become a meme at this point, so this tool is invaluable. I tried it with my favourite sourdough recipe and it didn't handle HTML encoded apostrophes. They display as 's I imagine other HTML encoded entities might also be handled this way.
- iambateman 4y agoMmm thanks for trying it out! I’m working on getting the encoding right while maintaining DB security. This is definitely an issue, though.
- deevus 4y agoWith regards to the story, I think you should lean heavily on how bad recipe blog posts are. They try to tell you their whole life story before getting to the actual recipe. Your tool removes all the rubbish and cruft.
- agentwiggles 4y agoI think the best way to promote it would be to write a 1000 word essay about how when you were a little kid, you just loved to hang out in the kitchen and read recipes with Grandma, and a long description of your family's Christmas traditions, a few reviews of your favorite albums, and some amateur poetry. Put all this content at the top of the page. Intersperse several ads for kitchen products, electric shavers, and grey market Cialis. After all this, throw a sentence at the bottom describing your product and add a link. You're sure to get thousands of hits! Just kidding obviously. This is a fantastic idea.
