RecipeSage is a collaborative recipe keeper that helps you collect, organize, and search your recipes, then turn them into meal plans and shopping lists you can share with others. It is built as a Progressive Web App, designed to feel native on mobile and desktop.

Key Features

  • Import recipes from URLs, images, PDFs, or pasted text
  • Full-text search across recipe fields with typo tolerance
  • Recipe tagging and filtering for organization
  • Drag-and-drop meal planning calendar
  • Shopping lists with automatic categorization, grouping, and combining similar items
  • Sharing features for collaborating on recipes, meal plans, and lists
  • Import from other recipe apps/formats (including JSON-LD and several popular recipe managers)
  • Export/backup in multiple formats for portability
  • Dark mode and multi-language support

Use Cases

  • Keep a household recipe collection with shared access for family members
  • Plan weekly meals and generate a combined shopping list from selected recipes
  • Import and archive recipes from the web into a searchable personal database

Limitations and Considerations

  • Dual-licensed: non-commercial use is available under AGPL-3.0; commercial usage requires a separate license

RecipeSage is a strong fit for individuals and households that want an organized, searchable recipe library with collaborative planning and shopping workflows. Its import capabilities and PWA interface make it especially convenient across devices.
