About this application

Based Cooking is a recipe application for Android, published by Binabh. Its stated scope is narrow: showing cooking recipes in a plain interface, with no advertising in the app. If you are looking for a reading surface for recipes rather than a meal planner, a grocery service, or a social cooking network, that narrower scope is the point.

The code is released under CC0-1.0, a public domain dedication rather than a conventional copyleft or permissive licence. In practice this means the author waives copyright claims as far as the law allows, so the recipe presentation code can be reused, rebuilt, or forked without attribution or licence-compatibility work. That matters if you intend to adapt it into another project.

Android is the only platform listed, so desktop and iOS users have nothing to install here. The available data also does not say how the recipe collection is stored, whether it works without a network connection, or whether new recipes arrive through updates or downloads. Check the project's own documentation before relying on it offline.
