How does the cook mode handle things like switching between steps when you need to set multiple timers at once for different parts of the recipe?
@nurglrtlx Each timer runs on its own, so you can have a few going at once and they keep counting while you jump between steps. Whichever one finishes beeps and buzzes, so you don't need to be sitting on that step to catch it.
Honest catch: right now you only see a timer's countdown when you're on its step, so the background ones you hear more than watch. An always-visible strip of the running timers is the obvious next thing to add. Thanks for poking at this. it's literally the part I use most while burning garlic😁😁.
Pasted a NYT cooking link and it stripped the life story right out, just ingredients and steps. Cook mode timers actually ran while I was chopping, which is more than I expected.
@ensarnafq "More than I expected" is honestly the nicest thing you can say about a free tool, thank you. Pulling the timers straight out of the step text was the fun part to build. Appreciate it, Ensar!
Pasted a New York Times link and it stripped out the life story before the ingredient list, which is exactly what I wanted. The cook mode timer with the keep-screen-on bit actually saved me from burning the onions last night.
@dorukkzltajeny Ha, the screen dimming mid-recipe with wet hands was my personal nemesis, so keep-screen-on was the first thing cook mode got. Glad it saved the onions. Thanks Doruk!
Pasted a New York Times cooking link and it actually stripped all the life-story preamble, just the ingredients and steps like it promised. The cook mode timer per step is such a nice touch, my hands were floury and I just hit next.
@melihlidiphxj Floury hands just hitting next is the exact moment cook mode exists for, I kept burning things scrolling back for the timing. Made my day. Thanks for cooking with it, Melih!
finally something that does one thing well. pasted a seriouseats link and got just the recipe, no life story or popups. the cook mode timers are a nice touch too.
@ervanayir "does one thing well" is the whole goal, thank you. So glad it landed :)
Paste a NYT link and it actually strips out the life story before the recipe, which is honestly my biggest pet peeve with most recipe sites. The offline cook mode with timers is a nice touch too.
@kadervm1i Thanks! appreciated!!
