Feature ideas

This issue exists to track ideas for new features.

## Intelligent ingredient alternatives

Can't or don't want to use an ingredient in a recipe? For example, if it's expensive, if you're allergic, you don't have it available, or something else entirely.

Make a feature to intelligently suggest alternative ingredients. For example, suggest using fettucine or other pasta in place of spaghetti.

## Scale recipe

Self-explanatory. Scale a recipe for more/less servings.

## Check off ingredients and steps

When ingredients or steps are clicked, check them off and mark them as "taken care of"

## Shopping list generator

Generate a shopping list based on ingredients for a recipe.

## Recipe roulette

Randomly pick a recipe.

## Ingredient relational network

Make a network of ingredients. What ingredients commonly go together? What clusters exist? Visualise! Make aliases for ingredients. Find recipes that are similar - nearest neighbour search.

## User ratings

Store ratings for each user.

This issue is a backlog containing seven separate feature ideas, and it names no files, tests, or entry points. Start by selecting one idea and reading the relevant recipe-platform code; the chosen feature needs a defined scope and acceptance criteria before implementation can begin.
