Some quick context: I was inspired to build this by this HN post earlier today [1]. So thank you glorf for making the recipe dataset available.
Thought this would take me 1-2 hours to build, ended up taking about 6 hours - engineering estimates and all!
> Details about the Tech Stack:
The dataset has 2,231,142 recipes and is indexed on Typesense [2], an open source alternative to Algolia/ElasticSearch that a friend and I are working on.
The UI was built using the Typesense adapter for InstantSearch.js [3] and is a static site bundled using ParcelJS.
The app is hosted on S3, with CloudFront for a CDN.
The search backend is powered by a geo-distributed 3-node Typesense cluster running on Typesense Cloud [4], with nodes in Oregon, Frankfurt and Mumbai.
