It organizes recipes, ingredients, cuisines, and chefs, and presents browsing, recipe-detail, shopping-list, and cooking views. ### Project history Matthias Clasen introduced the app in December 2016 as GNOME Recipes, asking GNOME contributors to provide real recipes and photos so the application could ship with community-contributed content rather than test data. The project followed GNOME application conventions, using GTK, Meson, Flatpak, and GNOME design resources. The repository README describes the app's main objects as recipes, ingredients, cuisines, and chefs, and notes that after the 1.0 release the build system switched exclusively to Meson. The archived GNOME wiki page documents the app's user-facing views and links to stable Flatpak distribution. ### Adoption history Recipes was adopted as one of GNOME's application experiments beyond traditional office and system utilities. Its distribution through Flatpak, Linux distribution packages, and Homebrew made it available to users who wanted a desktop-native cookbook rather than a web-only recipe collection. ### How it is used Practitioners use GNOME Recipes to browse included recipes, save personal recipes, group them by cuisine or occasion, create shopping lists, and follow cooking steps at the computer. Contributors used it as a community content project because recipe text and photos could be improved independently of the application code. ### Why package nerds care For package nerds, GNOME Recipes is notable because it packages structured content with a desktop app. It also shows GNOME's mid-2010s Flatpak-era app model: a GTK application with community data, translations, Meson builds, and distro packaging despite having a non-developer subject matter. ### Timeline - 2016-12: Matthias Clasen announces GNOME Recipes and asks for recipe/photo contributions. - 2017: Recipes receives wider Linux distribution and Flatpak attention. - 2018: A GNOME Recipes hackfest explores ways to extend the cooking app for GNOME and Endless OS users. ### Related projects - GNOME Recipes is related to Gourmet Recipe Manager, GNOME Cookbook community content, Flatpak, GTK, Meson, GNOME design resources, and distribution packages such as Debian, Arch, openSUSE, and Homebrew formulas. ### Sources -
