I'm shocked that no good recipe organization and authoring platform has existed before this.

@guygal what about @yummly or Cookpad (https://cookpad.com/en)?

Congratulations @cherianthomas , this is a great, clean interface, very smooth, very fluid and responsive. The editor is super lightweight with many powerful features neatly hidden until needed; the entire UX is really thought out and polished. Great team, very obviously, congrats! :) Here's my entry :) http://www.cucumbertown.com/wien... PS would love a low/no-carb diet style!

@andreaspizsa Thanks a lot for the compliments. CT is all about people and not diets. Think about it as disrupting food blogging. For e.g. http://raymondsfood.cucumbertown... does slow carb But Pandara http://pandara.cucumbertown.com/ is an American expat living in Thailand trying out the life there.

Hi all, We built this with a lot of help and feedback from the Hacker News community. We wanted to take a mundane task, a procrastinating experience and make it addictive. Here’s a recipe written with writer http://www.cucumbertown.com/chho... The editor stays simple but gives you the ability to achieve some beautiful without much effort. All with auto-complete, step by step images etc. We designed ways to split up ingredients, portions, units – a little bit like the way Microsoft word does with grammar. This is a beautiful start for us. We hope you like it as much as we did building it. A long way to nirvana…

We have been a big fan of the folks @cucumbertown for a while. The team is kickass. For an evergreen procastinator like me who is also a sucker for elegant interfaces, this is finger-licking good :)

Interface looks a lot like Pinterest (from what I can tell from the video). Wish there were a bit more on the landing page. Nice product - haven't really found anything to organize my recipes. Right now they're sitting in Evernote.

@stttories Tori, Think about CT as Tumblr for cooks. The Pinterest like interface is the feed. It’s all about profiles. People like http://marekthi.cucumbertown.com/ http://jane.cucumbertown.com/ and this is me http://cherian.cucumbertown.com/ So if you want to store your recipes somewhere, yes this is the perfect place.

Seems like there's some clear inspiration from Medium in your editor, no?
