Hey HN, I built this because I made a super tasty Texas white queso, but then I didn't know where I should keep the recipe. I also realized recipe sites kind of suck. So in the end I made a Github for recipes.

Import any recipe URL and it strips out the life stories and ads. The main thing: you can fork and edit recipes, and it keeps version history so you remember what you actually changed. It's been fun for me because I'm cooking a lot more now because it's easy to keep track of.

I also threw in a scan recipe which uses AI to parse out the text so that it should be easy to import recipes from photos/print/etc.

SvelteKit + Cloudflare Pages + D1. iOS app is live, Android in beta.

Happy to answer any questions.
