CONCEPT.MAP-NOT-MANUAL

Summary

hamburg is a map of what an ingredient can become, not a manual of recipes.

Why it matters

The owner has a poor memory. The README opens with it. A recipe has to be hunted for; a map is opened for whatever is on the counter, and a path is picked. Journeys says the same thing in its own words.

Implications

  • Every raw ingredient has a journey: a graph of what it can become.
  • Every node in a graph is a link.
  • A step page is big numbered steps with little text.
  • The site is not documentation. A page that reads like a manual is wrong.
