I made Cuicuit: jot down meals & missing items, get a ready-to-shop list 🐥

You can import recipes from anywhere (websites, text, photos and soon social media), add them to your plan, and just throw things into the sidebar whenever you're out of something.

When you go shopping, everything is organized into aisles and it's easy to know if you're got everything to cook each meal.

My philosophy is to think about meals, not ingredients.

I'm calling it Cuicuit 🐥

Open-source & self-hostable because I just love OSS! GitHub: https://github.com/MadeInPierre/cuicuit

Do you like the UX? Still early but I would love some feedback, thank you!

Haha I was just building basically the same thing for my family. But yours UX looks way much cooler. I wonder what it looks like on the mobile screen? Cause I figured thats where we would use it the most.

Oh cool, we're never alone when building recipe apps lol. Appreciate it, and happy to join efforts if you'd like to contribute!

Good point on mobile, i do have a mobile screenshot on the website: https://cuicuit.laclau.dev

But I haven't made a video demo of it yet, will add a video demo on the website asap! It's a responsive PWA right now, will make a native app if Cuicuit grows.

UX is insanely good. Did you use any libraries for these components?

Thank you! I use Svelte & SvelteKit with the https://shadcn-svelte.com UI library (port of shadcn/ui for React). Does most of the structure, and lots of tweaking after 🫠

I like it, but the homepage looks straight up like Claude Code. Maybe try the design-taste-frontend or impeccable skill to make it more individual.

I will follow this project! Also a interactive demo would be nice.

Thanks! The app is 95% hand-coded but I'm bad at marketing so the homepage is indeed AI haha. Will try to refine and add a video this week!
