I found tandoor, mealie, etc too bloated and complex for a simple catalogue of recipes. my solutions was mkdocs.

i do have to write out each recipe in markdown but this gives me a chance to read each recipe in detail and understand it before it goes into my catalogue.

Wow ! I will still try mealie /Tandoor for family purpose and ease of use. If it doesn't work as expected, I will totally try this out !!

One question if you don't mind,

servings Indicates how many people the recipe is for. Used for scaling quantities. Leading number is used for scaling, anything else is ignored but shown as units.

Does this function work well? I didn't saw any examples so maybe you could tell me :)

Thanks !

I'm not sure as that's not a feature I used at all. I normally scale recipes in my brain, for better or worse hahah.
