Recipe Web App Demo

Project Info:

I embarked on a personal project aimed at honing my JavaScript skills, resulting in the development of a recipe web app for my portfolio. This web app allows users to explore a vast collection of existing recipes or contribute their own. By leveraging the power of JavaScript, I implemented dynamic features that enhance the user experience.

Users can search for recipes and retrieve detailed information such as ingredients, cooking time, and step-by-step instructions. A standout feature of the app is the ability for users to specify the desired number of servings, which automatically adjusts the ingredient quantities accordingly. This functionality streamlines the cooking process and eliminates the need for manual calculations.

To enhance user convenience, the web app includes a bookmarking feature. Users can save their favorite recipes, and these selections are conveniently accessible in their personalized favorites dropdown list. This feature ensures that users can easily revisit and prepare their preferred recipes without having to search for them repeatedly.

Throughout the development process, I delved into various aspects of web application architecture, including working with MVC (Model-View-Controller) architecture, configuring files, implementing event handlers within the MVC framework, and managing errors and success messages. Additionally, I developed a robust DOM updating algorithm and utilized localStorage for efficient data storage. JSON files were leveraged to store and retrieve recipe data, ensuring seamless integration with the web app.

Undertaking this project enabled me to demonstrate my mastery of JavaScript, as well as my ability to work with complex frameworks and handle diverse functionalities within a web app. By combining technical expertise with a focus on user experience, I successfully created a recipe website that exemplifies my skills and passion for front-end development.
