Threw this little application together today. It uses the OpenAI API to help you figure out what you want to cook next! Please note that the OpenAI API response times are really slow - sorry about that! If someone has suggestions on how I can improve the prompt response time, please share!

Over the last 2-3 weeks, I vibecoded the recipe app that I always wished existed - recipeninja.ai . It now includes a fully interactive voice assistant so you don't need to get your dirty hands over your new iPad when you're cooking. Background: I’m a startup founder turned investor. I taught myself (bad) PHP in 2000, and picked up Ruby on Rails in 2011. I’d guess 2015 was the last time I wrote a line of Ruby professionally. Last month, I decided to use Windsurf to build a Rails 8 API backend and React front-end app, using OpenAI's realtime API for voice-to-voice responses. Over the last few…

1) Summary = RecipeHunt(http://recipehunt.app) is a Recipe Search Engine that gives you the only 3 things that matter in my opinion: (a) Picture, (b) Ingredients, (c) Directions 2) Problem = Every recipe site is bloated(e.g. full of ads, long backstory). I just want to see 3 things: Picture, Ingredients, Directions. 3) Solution = Built a simple Recipe Search Engine that gives you only those 3 things. 4) Tech Stack = Vanilla HTML, CSS, Javascript, PHP, SQL (some JQuery). Frameworks are too complicated for me, so I just wanted to build with what I know. 5) Design -Main Feed = Similar…

Hi HN, COVID lockdowns made me and my wife cook a lot more at home, and we had a need to streamline our recipe management woes. These were some of the problems we identified: - Most recipe websites are what I call "mommy blogs", and the principal problem is that the recipe ingredient list and instructions are buried in a SEO-laden essay that we don't care about. We were sharing links to our favorite recipes, but links don't allow you to skip past the unnecessary essay prefacing the recipe. We knew we wanted a way to have recipes uncompromised by unrelated essays. - Popular recipe aggregating…

Hey HN! I created a web app called Roast My Dish, it's a fun side project where you upload a photo of your dish, and an AI chef roasts it brutally. After the roast, it gives you a personalized "redemption" recipe to help you improve (or laugh). It's built using Next.js, Tailwind.css, MongoDB, Azure Open Ai API, and I tried to mix entertainment with a bit of usefulness. Great for foodies, meme lovers, and anyone curious about AI + humor use cases. Would love your feedback or ideas to improve it!

I am happy to announce the updated release of my web app, 7courses. http://7courses.com/ 7courses makes it ridiculously easy to jot down and manage your collection of recipes. As someone who cooks, I often find recipes online or in cookbooks, but have no way to organize them. I have been looking for a digital "recipe box". After plenty of searching I just made my own. 7courses was built around the idea that you should be able to choose how you want to organize your recipes, and doing so should be easy and quick. The UI is responsive and intuitive, with a no frills design. Just jump right in…

Hey Everyone! This is my first post on Hacker News, and I wanted to share my project with you! From a young age, I dreamed of becoming a chef, but life took me down the path of software engineering instead. Nevertheless, my passion for creating delicious meals has always remained close to my heart. This journey led me to seek out recipes to enhance my cooking skills, but I often found myself frustrated by the websites I encountered—ads everywhere, walls of text, and recipes that were difficult to follow. That’s where PurePlates comes in. PurePlates allows users to share a recipe through…

Hey HN! I've just launched CookThis, my new app that helps fight food waste by using up leftover ingredients. It uses ML in a couple of ways to aid this, both by using a CNN to detect ingredients from a camera feed, and by using an LLM to generate new recipes. Would be great to get some feedback! There's a week free trial available with no commitment
