Requirements

For PHP scripts:

  • PHP, preferably the latest version

Usage

Run any of these files as-is. Enjoy!

Requests

Email us any requests.

Note: The integrity and utility of these recipes is very important to us. This means keeping them tidy and aimed at a wide audience. If you request a very specific recipe we may make it less specific so it's more accessible.

Support

These recipes are meant as a starting point. Most recipes have only been tested to work with the latest version of Chrome stable at the time of creation. YMMV.
