Show HN: Instantly search 2M recipes
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.<p>Thought this would take me 1-2 hours to build, ended up taking about 6 hours - engineering estimates and all!<p>> Details about the Tech Stack:<p>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.<p>The UI was built using the Typesense adapter for InstantSearch.js [3] and is a static site bundled using ParcelJS.<p>The app is hosted on S3, with CloudFront for a CDN.<p>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.<p>Here's the source code: <a href="https://github.com/typesense/showcase-recipe-search" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/typesense/showcase-recipe-search</a><p>[1] <a href="https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25356156" rel="nofollow">https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=25356156</a><p>[2] <a href="https://github.com/typesense/typesense" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/typesense/typesense</a><p>[3] <a href="https://github.com/typesense/typesense-instantsearch-adapter" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/typesense/typesense-instantsearch-adapter</a><p>[4] <a href="https://cloud.typesense.org" rel="nofollow">https://cloud.typesense.org</a>
