Recipe Manager Is Here

Here it is, my next project, complete!


For future reference, a link to Recipe Manager will always be available on my BrandonBruno.com portal. What follows is a quick tour of my latest creation.

Plain and simple. I use a common user-authentication system, so once you have an account set up on BrandonBruno.com, your credentials will perpetuate across any future sites I create.

This is the meat and potatoes. On the left, you have the option to narrow your recipe list down by category (with more options such as servings, prep time, etc. coming in the future). On the right, the full list of all your recipes. Again, plain and simple.

This is an individual recipe, ready for reading on screen. This website design is naturally and highly readable on most mobile devices, such as a smartphones and tablets, which means you may never have to use paper to print all your recipes...

... But just in case you do want a hard-copy, a nice printer-friendly format exists.

And finally, here is a recipe being edited. Adding and editing recipes use the exact same interface, so you will be familiar with both fairly quickly.

Recipe Manager has a couple of core features coming later this year:
  • The Community: a place where you can share your recipes with other users.
  • Resize-able fonts: ability to change the font style and size on the entire website
I am always open to suggestions for future additions or modifications to the site, and the Account page on Recipe Manager has a Feedback option that allows you to submit such comments.

Recipe Manager is an invite-only service for now, so if you want an account, please shoot me an email and I will get you set up ASAP! Instructions for this are on the Recipe Manager login page.

B3 out.
