I started groceri.es (https://groceri.es), a recipe manager and smart shopping list in one. Its goal is a combination of paprika (https://paprikaapp.com) and Listonic (https://listonic.com).

I was continuously fighting my recipe planning. I did it for a long time in Google Keep. I can't manage recipes there, I have to add items to the shopping list manually. Changes in menu planning don't keep up with the shopping list, I forget to check the pantry. Etc. This time looked right to create something to mitigate the frustrations.

The technology is quite simple, it is a CRUD app in Flask with SQL backend. Everything is a docker container with data in a volume. UX is now quite limited, based on Fomantic UI. There is no goal to make it Saas, for friends I will just spin up a second instance.

I have been a software engineer for over a decade, but haven't been programming the last 5 years. Besides I am a fanatic home cook. So this looked like the perfect opportunity to have some fun again.

Love it! Thanks for making this. I’d love to have an app that uses this to pull up recipes and help pick items from Jumbo.
