Overview

In this feature request, we will explore the functionality of allowing users to add their own recipes to the system. This feature will enable users to create and save their favorite recipes, making it easier for them to access and cook them in the future. In this article, we will delve into the details of how this feature can be implemented, including the user interface and the backend logic.

User Interface

The user interface for adding recipes will be a simple and intuitive process. When the user clicks on the "Add" button under the "Recipes" section, a new form will appear, prompting them to enter the name and ingredients of the recipe.

Recipe Name

The first field in the form will be the recipe name. This will be a text input field where the user can enter the name of the recipe. The name should be descriptive and easy to understand, so that the user can easily identify the recipe later.

Ingredients and Amounts

The next field in the form will be the ingredients and amounts. This will be a table or a list where the user can enter the ingredients and their corresponding amounts. The user can add multiple ingredients and amounts, and can also edit or delete them as needed.

Adding Ingredients and Amounts

To add an ingredient and amount, the user will click on the "Add Ingredient" button. This will create a new row in the table, where the user can enter the ingredient name and amount. The user can then click on the "Save" button to save the ingredient and amount.

Editing and Deleting Ingredients and Amounts

To edit an ingredient and amount, the user will click on the "Edit" button next to the ingredient and amount. This will open a new form where the user can edit the ingredient name and amount. The user can then click on the "Save" button to save the changes.

To delete an ingredient and amount, the user will click on the "Delete" button next to the ingredient and amount. This will remove the ingredient and amount from the table.

Saving the Recipe

Once the user has entered the recipe name and ingredients and amounts, they can click on the "Save" button to save the recipe. The recipe will then be added to the list of recipes, and the user can access it later.

Backend Logic

The backend logic for adding recipes will involve creating a new recipe object and saving it to the database. The recipe object will contain the recipe name, ingredients, and amounts.

Creating a New Recipe Object

When the user clicks on the "Save" button, the backend will create a new recipe object. The recipe object will contain the recipe name, ingredients, and amounts.

Saving the Recipe Object to the Database

The recipe object will then be saved to the database. The database will store the recipe name, ingredients, and amounts, and will also store any additional information, such as the date the recipe was created and the user who created it.

Retrieving the Recipe Object

When the user wants to access a recipe, the backend will retrieve the recipe object from the database. The recipe object will contain the recipe name, ingredients, and amounts, and will also contain any additional information, such as the date the recipe was created and the user who created it.
