Great work. I love coming across projects like these. Inspires me to "hack" and generally maintains my enthusiasm when the job doesn't.
A suggestion:
- remove the delayed image zoom when hovering over a recipe. It's a bit jarring and it makes the webapp feel slow when it isn't. I'd explore another way to display the information or just remove the delay entirely.
Thanks for the kind words. This indeed was a hack project that I would work on in front of the TV when I had time after work. It feels good to have it in a somewhat "showoff-able" state. I think what made me stick to this project as opposed to the number of other ones I've given up on is that this was something I was using throughout the entire development. So I've been building something that I want to use.
To your comment on the animation delay, I agree with you. I'll remove it in the next few days in favor of a better way to display the information.
