Show HN: Colorfle – A daily color mixing game inspired by Wordle
Hi HN,<p>I was inspired by Wordle to make Colorfle, a different take on the genre where the goal is to mix colors together to match the target color within six tries. There were some interesting problems to tackle in making this game, one of them being the difference between mixing digital colors and real-life behavior (in RGB, blue + yellow = grey!). I hope you enjoy it -- any feedback would be much appreciated!

Show HN: CookTime – Recipe index
Hi HN,<p>COVID lockdowns made me and my wife cook a lot more at home, and we had a need to streamline our recipe management woes. These were some of the problems we identified:<p><pre><code> - Most recipe websites are what I call "mommy blogs", and the principal problem is that the recipe ingredient list and instructions are buried in a SEO-laden essay that we don't care about. We were sharing links to our favorite recipes, but links don't allow you to skip past the unnecessary essay prefacing the recipe. We knew we wanted a way to have recipes uncompromised by unrelated essays.
- Popular recipe aggregating websites are run by publishing companies that do not want you, the reader, to contribute your own recipes. This is not true for all of them; Allrecipes.com does allow you to enter recipes but that UI leaves a lot to be desired. We knew we needed a way for us (and you) to write your own recipes.
- Most recipe websites do not allow you to scale recipe ingredients. We like to cook a lot at once, and we don't like to keep track of a 2x, or 3x multiplier in our heads while cooking. We knew we wanted a simple way of scaling ingredients.
- Most recipe websites do not contain adequate nutrition information about their recipes. When they do, they don't show their math, or their sources. We knew we needed an automatic nutrition calculation for recipes based on ingredients and their quantities.

After a few months of nights and weekends, we are ready to share <a href="https://letscooktime.com" rel="nofollow">https://letscooktime.com</a> . We solved all of the primary problems listed above, and more! Our features:<p><pre><code> - Recipe creation
- Ingredient highlights in recipe text
- Recipe components
- Automatic nutrition calculation
- Grocery lists
- Scaling recipes
- Tagging
- No blogging, just recipes! No bullshit essay to scroll through.
- Dark mode!
</code></pre>
We think the closest thing to CookTime is <a href="https://www.paprikaapp.com" rel="nofollow">https://www.paprikaapp.com</a>. Paprika is a paid native app, CookTime is a free mobile-ready website you can try _today_. I do not believe that recipe management really requires the performance, development cost, and App Store cost of a native app.<p>Without a CookTime account, you can:<p><pre><code> - Browse recipes
- Read their nutrition facts
- Scale ingredients temporarily
- Share links to recipes
</code></pre>
With a CookTime account, you can:<p><pre><code> - Add your own recipes
- Add recipes to your personal groceries list
</code></pre>
Let me know what you think! Would you use it? What are you currently using to track your recipes? What missing feature is stopping you from using CookTime?
