Makanesia: Recipe Sharing & Cooking Community App

Makanesia is a mobile app concept for home cooks to discover, save, and share everyday Indonesian recipes. It combines a recipe library with a social community, so cooking feels more personal and inspiring.
The Explore page works like a social feed. Users can browse dishes posted by cooks near them (“Sekitar Mu”) or by friends (“Teman”). Each post shows the creator’s name and community points, a mouth-watering food photo, and a Follow button, which encourages users to connect with cooks they like. The points system gives contributors a reason to keep sharing.
The Recipe page keeps everything organized. Saved recipes are grouped into collections like Sarapan, Makan Malam, and Barbeque. The “Lanjutkan memasak mu” section shows which step users stopped at, for example “Tahap ke 2 dari 10,” so they can pick up a recipe exactly where they left off. The search screen shows recent searches that can be removed with one tap, plus a “Pencarian Terbanyak” list of the most popular recipes with view counts.
The visual style pairs a bold red accent with clean white layouts and large food photography. The red adds appetite appeal and energy, and green progress labels make cooking steps easy to track at a glance.
