Things to think about

  • Socializing the app.
    • Case: You have an event to cook for but you're not sure what you should make based on known attendies preferances or allergies.
    • Solution? Setup simple profile of guests preferances and allergies. Select which people will be attending the event and cross referance it to the dishes you'd like to consider for the event. It will populate suggestions based on the two.
  • Collaborate with recipe websites to cumulate a common recipe.
    • Case: You would like the commonly accepted recipe version for spaghetti.
    • Solution? Sweep through a recipe website to search for "spaghetti" using a phonetic algorithim, then collect ingredients and sort through the most commonly found to produce the "Common spaghetti Recipe".
