Show HN: I made a tool to collect recipes from anywhere and store them your way
I’ve been trying to level up in the kitchen and wanted a simple way to collect recipes, guides, and cooking frameworks.
I’m a heavy Obsidian user, and inspired by the Obsidian philosophy of giving you full control over your data, I wanted to bring that same idea to recipes.
So I built Cooksync: a transport layer for recipes. Instead of being a recipe manager, it imports recipes from anywhere and syncs them to the tools you already use. Use the Chrome extension to save from websites, or the mobile app to grab recipes from social media. Once imported, recipes are automatically synced to Obsidian or Notion (with more platforms coming soon).
- dtkav 2y agoGreat work! Awesome to see more companies in the Obsidian ecosystem. Have you considered making an Obsidian focused landing page / brand? I imagine that for Obsidian users having Notion as an option is a distraction, and vice versa. The "all your data in one place on your machine" resonates strongly, and then "or in another cloud" kind of waters down the concept.
- addef 2y agoThanks! That is an interesting take! Today, the majority of users use Obsidian as their exporter. My idea was to have a broad offering, but it might be confusing and scare people away. I will definitely consider this!
