Easily compile a week menu and shopping list.
This repository contains the source code for a simple webpage that allows users to search and select recipes from a database and add them to a (week) menu. It will automatically compile a shopping list from the recipes' ingredients.
Since this is originally made for a Dutch website, there is a minimal amount of content that's still Dutch.
Recipes are added as YAML files with the following syntax:
title: Handmade potato chips
description: Make your own potato chips
ingredients:
- 5 big potatos
- 5 g salt
prepping:
- Pre-heat the oven to 200 °C
- Peel the potatos (optional)
cooking:
- Slice the potatos (thickness approximately 2 mm)
- Wash and dry the potato slices
- Sprinkle with oil and sea salt
- Spread over a baking tray covered with a sheet of parshment paper
- Bake for 20 minutes (flip after 10 minutes for the best result)

reference: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potato_chipDisclaimer: this is a hobby project and one of my first experiences with web development. Please keep this in mind if you try to re-use parts of the code. Constructive feedback is always welcome (you may open an issue).
The site is written in simple HTML5 with Vanilla JS and Sass for styling. It uses the fetch API to retreive all recipes from a JSON file. This is a temporary solution until I have time to setup something better.
The JSON file is created by combining multiple YAML files. A simple python script to do this is included with the source files.
This project is still under heavy development.
