This is perhaps a bit more of a philosophical point but I think that I find the separation of quantity and ingredient perhaps a little arbitrary - in many cases they're coupled tightly e.g. I've only ever found 'cloves' as a quantity to refer to garlic.
I've personally always wanted recipes to be prefixed with a mise en place section of steps - e.g. instruct the reader explicitly to dice onions, etc. in the main body of the recipe rather than imply the step in the ingredient description - what do you reckon?
I agree wholeheartedly - in fact the css class I actually use for the 'notes' column is MEP, for mise en place. That was the original intent for that column but it has become something of a catch all over time. I wonder if a mise en place component at the top of the recipe, in a separate grid, would be useful?
That's great, I really like it. My main thought is that most of non-american engineers favor SI units, so getting values in cups, ounces and pounds is not too great.
A possible improvement would be to replace freedom units with their international counterpart (with sane rounding to a two digits precision, or similar).
Thank you! I agree completely. Right now it just uses the units in the original recipe, but being able to toggle between the two is definitely something I would like to do.
I really like the design of this!

I love this thing for process view. Can you share the code so I can fork and build for our academic groups who need help with processes?
Would be happy to discuss! Shoot me an email so I can understand a bit more, email can be found on my site in my bio or on gobsmacked!
