Based Cooking Website #

This repository was originally copied from based.cooking, whose source is available in the original GitHub repository. Updates to the original site have slowed to a crawl, so this fork now hosts a personal collection of recipes rather than serving as an official mirror or continuation.

  • Molly 8/21/26

https://cooking.daze.lol

This is a simple cooking website for collecting personal recipes. There are no ads, trackers or cookies (unless recipes thereof).

This site is compiled and organized with Hugo, using this very simple theme.

Ways to contribute #

  • By adding a recipe to git.
  • Reaching out to Molly directly (imessage//email/bluesky).
  • Make a recipe and take a nice picture of it if no nice picture already exists. Submitted images should be small .webp files ideally less than 100K or so.
  • Fix errors in recipes or add minor improvements.

Rules for submission #

  • Model submission files after example.md. Put them in content/.
  • File names should be the name of the dish with words separated by hyphens (-). Not underscores, and definitely not spaces.
  • Recipe must be "based," i.e. good substantial food. Nothing ironic.
  • Don't include salt and pepper and other ubiquitous things in the ingredients list.
  • Don't include an image unless (1) you took it yourself, and more importantly (2), it actually looks good!
  • The file needs to be \n terminated in unix-fashion (if you're on Linux you don't need to care, it should be automatic).

If you fail to do these things, I will close your submission and you will have to resubmit. I am tired of having to fix more than 50% of submissions.

You may include a json file with your personal links/donation addresses in data/authors/your-name.json. See mine (data/authors/luke-smith.json) for a model. You can include: website, donate (general donation link), email.

Tags #

Remember to add tags to your recipe, but try to use tags already used by other recipes.

If your recipe contains no meat or dairy, include the fasting tag. If it includes dairy but no milk, include the cheesefare tag.

Images #

Images are stored in /pix.

Each recipe can have a title image at the top and perhaps several instructional images as absolutely necessary.

Images should be in .webp format and with as small file size as possible. If you submit an image for say, chicken-parmesan.md, it should be added as pix/chicken-parmesan.webp.

If you would like to add additional directional images, they should be numbered with two digits like: pix/chicken-parmesan-01.webp, etc.

Note also that images should have links beginning with a slash in this use case, i.e. /pix/....

Deployment #

The site is hosted on the cooking-daze-lol Cloudflare Worker as static assets, with cooking.daze.lol attached as its custom domain. Tangled is the canonical Git host; pushes from the primary checkout are mirrored to Gitea for deployment. Pushes to master are built, smoke-tested, validated with a Wrangler dry run, and then deployed by Gitea Actions. Pull requests run the same checks without deploying.

To deploy manually:

git submodule update --init
nix run github:NixOS/nixpkgs/ea4c80b39be4c09702b0cb3b42eab59e2ba4f24b#hugo -- --minify
npx --yes wrangler@4.125.0 deploy

Wrangler reads Cloudflare credentials from CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN.
