Made a LAN web-based recipe software with a database back-end that lets you save, search, and make meal plans with your recipes! Any suggestions are very welcome.

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…

Meals You Love is a meal planning app that creates weekly meal plans tailored to your tastes and dietary preferences. It integrates with Kroger and Instacart's APIs so you can add your meal plan groceries directly to your cart. You can also import your own recipes to include alongside AI suggestions. I originally built this to help my wife with meal planning and grocery shopping. We were always struggling to decide what to make and inevitably forgot ingredients. Most meal planners felt too rigid or generic, and few handled the grocery side well (or at all). We've also used meal kits like…

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…

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…

Cooky▲20I built a recipe manager that automatically shows nutrition info for any recipe. Import from websites or photos, create healthier versions, and keep everything organized across devices. The trickiest part was handling unit conversions accurately—turns out 1 cup of flour and 1 cup of sugar have very different weights! 100% free, available on web and iOS. Looking for feedback!

Hi all, I’m a parent and meal planning for my kids always felt overwhelming. I built a web app that would let me create profiles for my children, plan their meals, put their meal preferences, recipes, export the plan to my calendar, and share links to the timetable with others, and of course an AI helping with the plan and recipe . For now it has a free plan and also paid plan with more functionalities. I hoped it would be helpful for other parents. So i shared it with some family and friends. I would really appreciate your feedback. Thanks

Hello everyone, I created a EasyCook app, this app will generate food recipes based on your ingredients. The idea is not to waste food, and if you have left some ingredients in the Kitchen, you can write it down in app and get a recipe based on these ingredients. The app is free to use, however have more features available for paid users. Would be thankful for feedback, so I can improve the app more!

Souva▲8Hi HN, I'm a solo student dev. Souva started with a problem my mom and I always ran into: we'd open a full fridge and have no idea what to make, then open a full pantry and still have no idea what to make. Most recipe apps expect you to find a recipe and go out and get everything, but we didn't have the time or the space for niche ingredients we'd only ever use once. Souva works with what you already have. You enter what you have by snapping a photo of your fridge, scanning a barcode, or typing it in, and the app finds recipes you can actually make right now. If you're like me and always…
