The Idea for creating the Recipe Binder Online website


https://recipebinderonline.com/


There was this need to create a framework based website. My wife had a notebook of handwritten recipes from our younger days. My daughter carried one along, which was her mainstay, when she went abroad for studies. So a recipes site suggested itself.


 Recipes are of interest to most of us. So the idea: why not make an online website where binders of recipes can be created? This idea came up on 23 Feb 2019.

Yii2 framework was selected. Handysolver.com an IT Services company run by my son and daughter-in-law uses this framework, so one knew where to go to when stuck!


This was a good decision, on hindsight.


My son suggested a wonderful book by Larry Ullman. With this book and some others one took the plunge.

The website was launched on Thursday 14 Mar 2019. And now this blog to share the experience.

Having delved in various website making technologies over the years was a help. However learning how to use a framework was tough.

Here is a link to a post on my other blog, about how technology is effecting our lives, which talks about the a new way to learn (A way to learn: how technology is helping us learn).

If anyone is interested in knowing what resources were used for making this new framework based website Recipe Binder Online, please indicate so in the comments and one will try and share the details.

Now I can cook! a little.

  Yummy's recipe binder Well the recent events, where we had to stay at home, had some positive outcomes. I learnt how to cook!  My wife taught me some of her recipes. My earlier cooking skills were limited to making an omelette or making tea. Now I know some more cooking. Here is a list of what I can treat my guests or myself with. It is empowering! All these are nicely collected in my recipe binder.
