A Recipe search engine

Forkify

Forkify is a project created as part of an Advanced JavaScript course on Udemy by instructor Jonas Schmedtmann. It is a recipe app built using the Model-View-Controller (MVC) architecture in JavaScript. It allows users to search for and bookmark recipes from a database of over 1 million recipes.

Features

• Search for recipes by entering a query
• View recipe details including ingredients, instructions, and images
• Adjust the number of servings to scale the recipe
• Bookmark your favorite recipes to view them later
• Upload your own recipes to the database

Tech Stack

• JavaScript (ES6+)
• Forkify API for recipe data
• MVC architecture
• Async/Await for asynchronous functions
• LocalStorage for bookmarking recipes

Possible Improvements

• Add nutrition information for recipes
• Improve search to better match user intent
• Add user accounts to save bookmarks
• Allow users to upload images for their recipes
• Add filtering and sorting options for search
