Inspiration

Our family has very diverse roots from where we come from, so it is safe to say that we have a lot of recipes that have been handed down by generations. But sometimes it gets hard to keep track of all of then. So I came up with the idea of a recipe bank to store the family recipes locally for fast and easy access.

What it does

I allows for the family to access a webpage in which the recipes can be viewed, sorted, edited, and created all on one place and very fast since it is hosted on the local network.

How I built it

I built this app using Django for the backend and used Bootstrap Studio to build the frontend.

Challenges I ran into

I spent a lot of time fixing bugs with Django's html template processing system since I was not very familiar with it. I also ran into challenges with CSS in terms that there was a lot of tweaking to get things right so that the backend and frontend would interact.

Accomplishments that I'm proud of

I am very proud of how long it took me to make this application even though I had not had much experience with Django. I am also proud of how the app looks and that it functions great.

What I learned

I have learned a great deal about Django, Python, SQLite, CSS, Bootstrap. Suffice it to say, this was a great learning experience especially since this was my first time really dealing with a website backend.
