v1.0.0Jul 2, 2026
- Initial release — live demo and downloadable, runnable foundation.
Recipe Box
The dishes worth repeating, plus the list to shop for them.
Searchable recipes with tags.
Ingredients and method, readable at the stove.
Fed by recipes, checked off at the store.
Overview
Recipe Box keeps the dishes you actually make: ingredients, method, and tags, searchable by whatever's in the fridge. One click sends a recipe's ingredients to the shopping list, de-duplicated against what's already there. A friendly starting point for meal planning, portion math, or import from your notes app.
