nyum VS pandoc-cookbook

Very neat!

I've recently taken a stab at something like this, too – the result is a Pandoc-and-Bash-script-based static site generator for my personal recipe collection. Recipes are written in a format based on Markdown (with ingredients listed separately for each step – comes in real handy while cooking), and the end result is a lightweight, responsive, searchable website.

I've open-sourced it here: https://github.com/doersino/nyum

There's also a demo: https://doersino.github.io/nyum/_site/index.html

Hiya! This tool turns a set of Markdown-formatted recipes into a lightweight, responsive, searchable website for your personal use as a reference while cooking, or for sharing with family and friends. It's not intended as a cooking blog framework: there's no RSS feed, no social sharing buttons, and zero SEO.

Here's a demo instance: https://doersino.github.io/nyum/_site/index.html

Nyum is somewhat opinionated, expecting recipes to be written as a series of steps, each with the relevant ingredients alongside an instruction. I first came across this way of doing it via the cuisine LaTeX package (which I then, many years ago, built a custom LaTeX template around), ending up preferring this structure over the more commonly found all-ingredients-first-then-a-block-of-instructions approach. (In the process of recently graduating from university, I found myself contemporaneously graduating from wanting to use LaTeX for everything, which was part of the impetus for cobbling this thing together.)

With some ammendments, this could be a base for your own template: Pandoc Cookbook
