I'm still working on https://reciperium.com where people can write recipes with a custom language and create forks of other recipes and modify them.

I'm currently working on supporting images on the recipes.

I'm proud of having launched on producthunt and now trying to figure out how to attract more users




It's nice! A few notes: I think, the ability to read the comments of others, who have already cooked a recipe, would be great! Additionally, it would be great to have the possibility to group ingredients, since many times you start with creating two ore three independent mixtures, that you only combine in the end.

My gut feeling, for attracting users, would be to just optimize the recipes to be found by people via search engines. It's great, that you are currently adding images. This is, I think, pretty important for deciding, if I want to cook something or not.


Thanks for the feedback! Really appreciated.

Regarding the comments, I'd really like to implement activitypub on reciperium. To add the ability to follow users and comment on recipes. And to be able to comment and follow from the fediverse. It's a good opportunity for me to explore the protocol.

What do you mean by combining ingredients? You can currently link to other recipes. So if you make a sauce, that can be a recipe on its own, and it can be linked from another recipe. See this for example: https://www.reciperium.com/rodriguezflors/roti

That's a good idea, I'm optimizing a bit the search engine now. I've been also thinking of writing a blog


I like the idea of recipe-lang. Great you open sourced it!


Thanks!! Hopefully it can live beyond reciperium!
