I like to cook, and for that I need a place where I can keep all my recipes. I’m currently using the app My Recipe Box. But it’s closed source and full of ads. While the pro version is pretty cheap, I wanted to see if there were any open source apps for this.

Selfhosted apps will be nice. I’m fine with web access and no native app as well. If not selfhosted, I can also manage with open source apps with automatic backup of some sort.

The only feature that I really need is recipe scraping. Thanks for all your suggestions.

        Yeap +1. The only gripe I have about Tandoor is the learning curve for scraping, organizing, and subtle scripting on the backend. Other than that, tandoor and mealie are quite comparable and great. Wife loves both of them.

        Things to note are tags, cleaning up scraped recipes, learning how to organize. Follow the docs online and ask away here for any tips and tricks

    I have been pretty happy with tandoor recipes. It and mealie are pretty similar. It doesn’t have a dedicated mobile app, but it is a progressive web app, and ihas worked well on my phone.

    I chose tandoor because it did something that mealie didn’t at the time I installed. But I don’t recall what that was.

      Admittedly, never tried Mealie but the PWA works excellently, the shopping list/planning are nice and I’ve enjoyed it so far.

      I also started with mealie and moved to tandoor for the ability to adjust the recipe when changing the portion size. Was that the feature you were thinking of?

      The recipe import feature is quite nice - it worked flawlessly for most of the websites i tried
