A simple culinary website.

Based Cooking Website

https://based.cooking

To-do

• get many recipes
• make and take pictures of recipes
• decide on CSS/styling, something good-looking and readable, but nothing too complicated
• search function? See below
• keep it simple

Rules for submission

Add reciples as .md files to the src/ directory. Look at already existing .md files for expemlars or see example.

Recipe must be based, i.e. good traditional and substantial food. Nothing ironic, meme-tier hyper-sugary, meat-substitute, etc.

Images

Each recipe can have a title image at the top and perhaps several instructional images as absolutely necessary.

Do not add stock images you found on the internet. Take a good picture yourself of the actual dish created. If you see a bad or substandard iamge, you may submit a better one.

Images should be in .webp format. If you submit an image for say, chicken-parmesan.md, it should be added as pix/chicken-parmesan.webp. I will create smaller images from that which is seen on the page, and upon being clicked, the user will see the full-size image.

If you would like to add additional directional images, they should be numbered with two digits like: pix/chicken-parmesan-01.webp, etc.

About the site

The front page, for now, will just be a list of recipes and when adding a .md page, please manually add a link to it in the list. As more articles are added, the site will be reorganized, categorized or will implement server-side scripting or searches. This is not necessary yet though.

I don't really want images of recipes on the mainpage yet. I'll think about how best to do it to minimize bandwidth if possible.

This site is generated with Roman Zolotarev's ssg5 which is also included in this repo for replicability.

curl/Search function in the future

I eventually want a command-line/curl interface to this site. Part of this would be an implicit search function.

So suppose someone wants a recipe with chicken, I'd like curl based.cooking/chicken to return articles with that title. If there is only one result, that page is opened.

Just something to think about. Then people could make a simple two or three character alias to get a simple text recipe.
