Kitchen‑Sune: A Community Cookbook

Description and use

Kitchen‑Sune is an international recipe collection built with Vuepress and Netlify, enabling community members to contribute recipes via GitHub PRs, fostering inclusive learning during the pandemic.

Problem

During the pandemic, Front‑End Foxes needed an online platform to share and learn comfort food recipes from diverse cultures, replacing in‑person workshops.

Outcome

Kitchen‑Sune became a clean, accessible, community‑driven recipe book that enabled boot camp participants to learn GitHub PRs while sharing diverse comfort food recipes.

Workflow

• 1. Gather recipes from community members worldwide.
• 2. Store recipes as markdown files in a GitHub repo.
• 3. Use Vuepress to build a static site from the markdown.
• 4. Deploy the site on Netlify for live demo.
• 5. Encourage contributors to add new recipes via pull requests.
• 6. Review and merge PRs to keep the cookbook updated.
