OVERVIEW
Overview
Shifang is a local-first recipe manager built for everyday cooking and baking. Each recipe can store ingredients, quantities, units, detailed steps, and notes. Any ingredient can be selected as the scaling base, and changing its quantity automatically recalculates the rest of the recipe proportionally. Shifang also supports AI-assisted recipe creation: take or select a recipe photo, use your own Qwen or Google Gemini API key, let AI extract the recipe, then review and edit the result before saving. Recipe data is stored locally in the browser with IndexedDB by default.
USAGE
Usage
Create a recipe, enter its name, category, ingredients, and cooking steps, then choose one ingredient as the scaling base and save. When you need a different batch size, change the base quantity and all other ingredients will be recalculated proportionally. You can also use AI Photo Import: choose Qwen or Google Gemini, enter your own API key, take or select a recipe photo, review the extracted fields, make any corrections, and save only after confirmation. Export your JSON backup regularly for important recipes.
