I am not looking for a recipe software that is open source.
I am looking for markdown formatted recipes for making food dishes, in a git repository, to which lots of people contribute.
Any ideas? Heard of such a thing?
Google is zero fucking help welcome to 2024 worst timeline.
Edit: Found one so far: https://github.com/obfuscurity/food-recipes
Not an easy thing to search for.
Edit: Here’s another one, but it’s small: https://github.com/panozzaj/recipes
Edit: Oh yeah, here we go! https://github.com/hrs/recipes/tree/main/recipes
Edit: Fuck yeah, now I’m on a roll: https://github.com/Thalagyrt/recipes

Edit: Jackpot! One of those “awesome” lists: https://github.com/bbbenji/awesome-recipes
Edit: Had already found some on that list already, but not this one! https://github.com/DEAD10C5/1337-Noms-The-Hacker-Cookbook
The problem with recipes is that people tend to add their flavor to it. Meaning, importing bulk recipes imports a lot of trash.
I started that way and quickly went back to: add one recipe after the other. Sometimes you may add a couple but only a couple which will be altered over the weeks to meet your standard.
Grocy has a recipe feature, it can even recommend you recipes based on what you have in your fridge: https://grocy.info/#recipe-details It can run on your server or you can use it a standalone desktop app. It’s a full systems to manage your fridge, e.g. it notifies you if something will expire soon.
But I think four use case any wiki or note manager software would be enough. You can hyperlink there ingredients for example.
These are self hosted, but you can use your desktop as a server, and a lot of them works completely offline:
That’s really cool, thank you.
Any idea how many people are contributing to the recipe inventory actively?
I would love to see lots of forks and sharing where folks contribute their own variation of recipes.
No recipe inventory, you should write your own.
It wasn’t clear from your post if you are looking for actual reciepes or a software managing them.
If the former, than I see why your search queries yield no results. “Open source” usually associated with software, open written works usally ha ve some kind creative commons license. Search for that instead
No worries. But sincerely, I tried to be as clear as possible in the post text. Not sure what else I could have said to be clearer.
Can you please compile a list and publish it someplace that’s better indexed than Lemmy?
Indexed?
I know Luke set up https://based.cooking/ a few years ago—is that the sort of thing you’re looking for?
Perfect! So many stars!
There is cooklang which I use in Obsidian. Maybe there are shared repos out there. They have a discord server you could check on
