Counter Cards

Recipes short enough for a kitchen display.

A tight card format for a small e-ink or terminal display: title, minutes, servings, and steps that fit. Built for pasting into a webhook, not for a blog.

A card is a title, a time, a yield, and short steps. The file is the spec, a template, and three filled examples.
