Show HN: Vanilla Cookbook – a deceptively simple recipe manager
Vanilla Cookbook is a self hosted recipe manager built with Svelte(kit). It is designed with complexity under the hood, keeping the user experience as uncluttered, simply vanilla as possible.
A brief feature list:
- Recipe Scraping - via script with optional OpenAI API backup, old school bookmarklet
- Smart unit conversion, volumetric ingredient matching (cups to grams via an ingredient lookup table), temperature parsing in instructions
- Complex ingredient parsing for quantity, units, ranges, fractions, extras
- Multiple language support
- User management
- Data control: Paprika format import/export
- Shopping list
- Cooking logs
- Docker deployment
- PWA
- Local storage: images + SQLite
Constructive feedback, GitHub issues/contributions/stars(!) are all very welcome.
- leejoramo 2y agoI will give this a try. I am needing something to use at my coffee shop/bakery for my staff. Currently, we use Paprika and I am Svelte developer, so this maybe a perfect fit.
- jt196 2y agoAwesome man, I did chat with a mate about adding baker's percentages to the app, but I guess with scaling, you shouldn't really need to use them. Let me know how you get on, I'm basically on this for the moment, so happy to tweak any additions that are feasible and fit into the design ethos.
- tttym 2y agoSo is this a lead database for twitch streamers?
- jt196 2y agoNot sure how you made that connection there! It's a self hosted app to save recipes, like actual food and stuff.
