About rcpbx

rcpbx (recipe box) is a personal collection of 161 tested recipes. No life stories. No ads. No popups. No newsletter signup modals. Just the recipe.

Every recipe here has been cooked, adjusted, and documented. Sources are credited where applicable—this is a curated collection, not original creations.

Why this exists: Recipe websites have become unbearable. You want to know how to make mashed potatoes, but first you have to scroll past 2,000 words about someone's grandmother's kitchen and dodge three popup ads. This is the antidote.

Features:

• Cook mode on every recipe: tap ingredients to check them off, tap a step to focus it
• Tappable timers in recipe steps (with a beep)
• "Keep screen on" toggle for wet-hands cooking
• Serving scaler — every quantity recalculates
• Save recipes to your box and get one combined grocery list — stored on your device, no account
• The Radar: viral recipes tested weekly, verdicts filed
• Print-friendly recipe cards with QR codes
• Dark mode support
• No tracking beyond basic analytics

Built with: Plain HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. No frameworks, no build process, no dependencies. Hosted on GitHub Pages.

Philosophy: Every element serves someone actively cooking. No theoretical content. No wasted space. Just practical utility.
