Based Cooking Website

Based Cooking is an open-source, community-maintained recipe website designed to provide straightforward cooking instructions without advertisements, trackers, or unnecessary distractions. It focuses on traditional, substantial meals made with accessible ingredients and practical preparation methods. The site organizes recipes into individual pages that are easy to read and navigate. Contributors can submit new recipes, improve existing instructions, and provide photographs of completed dishes. Recipes are stored as Markdown files and organized into a static website using Hugo. The project encourages lightweight WebP images to maintain fast page loading. Its minimalist design works well across desktop and mobile browsers. Based Cooking offers a collaborative alternative to commercial recipe websites that often prioritize advertising over usability.
