Create your own online cookbook with minimal effort
This cookbook is generated with the retype framework. It is ridiculously easy to set up, has every type setting feature you can think of, and can be hosted on your very own website. All for free and without having to install a thing.
To get your own online cookbook set up:
- Fork this repository.
- Change the links set up in retype.yml
- This means that you change
engeirto your own GitHub username. (Note that you can change everything else as well, but these two must be updated.) - You can for example change the language with the
localevariable. For a list of all supported languages, see supported languages.
- This means that you change
- Remove the CNAME file in the
retypebranch. - Set up workflows to be run in the forked repository.
- Workflows are not run by default in repositories that are forked, but this
can be turned on. Move to the
Actionspage of you repository to turn them on. - Manually run the
Publish ...workflow.
- Workflows are not run by default in repositories that are forked, but this
can be turned on. Move to the
- Finally, go to
Settings -> Pagesin your repository, and set GitHub pages to be built from theretypebranch.
Once you have done all the steps above, you have your own fork of the project that is set up to build a website every time the "main" branch is updated. You could do all the editing on the GitHub website, but if you want to instead clone it locally and edit using your editor of choice, you may also run a local version of the website. This is useful to be able to verify that your changes work before you push the changes to GitHub.
To do this you first clone the project, move into it and then run the retype CLI (visit their website for instructions on how to install the retype CLI):
# Use the URL of your fork:
git clone https://github.com/engeir/simple-recipes-cookbook
cd simple-recipes-cookbook
# Installing retype CLI with npm should be as simple as
# npm install retypeapp --global
retype start
# retype versions prior to v3.0 used the command `retype watch`If you now start changing files while the retype start command is running, the
locally hosted website will automatically update.
The deployed website found in this repository is what I'm using for my own recipes, and its contents (contents of src that is) will change. For fewer and more diverse examples of what is possible with retype, visit their website and have a look at my example repository.
