cookcli VS spec

Recently, I've been pretty interested in hyper-specific human-readable markup languages for more specific tasks. Things like CookLang[0] (recipes), Traindown[1] (workout logging), and Fountain[2] (writing screenplays).

I was wondering what other kinds of similar projects people have seen?

Cooklang is a markup language for cooking recipes. The original implementation was in Swift. There were implementations in many languages, even in rust, but that one didn't pass the original tests. That, combined with my desire to build a cooking recipe collection, started this project.

There is an open source recipe markup language called Cooklang and there is an Obsidian plugin to display and edit cooklang but is hasn't been updated in a while. There is also a tool to import recipes from many sites and convert them to cooklang.

I'm in a similar situation as yourself and I've been looking to do something similar.

One tool I've had bookmarked for this is Cooklang (https://cooklang.org/) which seems to cover most of the needs.

IMO, What we need is a website that is a combination of something like Cooklang[0] and a git forge - This way you can "fork" ;) recipes to modify and maintain attributions and have a machine readable format to convert weights, calculate dynamic portions etc.

Does anything like this exist?

Take a look at Hugo site generator? And https://cooklang.org?

You don't need the CLI to support the language. You just have to implement the spec of CookLang in TS/JS for this.

I agree, I thought about that. I expect that it can be some cases when either ingredients or units have spaces. And the problem is that I can't come up with a solid counter example. Something like @coriander{2%small batches}... You can open an issue in a spec repo so people can discuss https://github.com/cooklang/spec.
