One File · Powerful food tracker
Every recipe
worth cooking again.
A recipe box in one HTML file. Every recipe you actually make, every cook you log against it, every tweak you'll forget by the third time. With an 'overdue favourites' banner that gently surfaces top-rated recipes you haven't made in months.
One payment · Yours forever · 14-day refund
- Works fully offline

- Yours, forever
Loads once, never needs the internet again. On a plane, in a basement, in a foreign hotel.
Every entry, every chart — stored locally. We never see it. We can't.
No subscription. No upgrades. No re-up next year. One file, yours.
Why log
Why home cooks end up keeping a kitchen log.
Memory drops the small things. Notes don't.
The tweak you'll forget by next time.
Halved the salt? Cooked at 200 not 220? Used preserved lemon instead of fresh? The notes field saves the version that worked.
Most-cooked beats top-rated.
Average rating is what you imagine you cook. Most-cooked is what you actually cook. The list is your real cookbook.
Overdue favourites is the only nudge that matters.
Not the algorithm pushing recipes; just the ones you rated 4-5 and haven't cooked in two months. Tonight's dinner solved.
It survives the cookbook moving house.
Page 94 of the cookbook in the loft is gone. The note 'Ottolenghi Plenty p.94' on a recipe in the file isn't.

The promise
Your kitchen is yours.
Not a content network's data.
Offline, always
Open it once, never need the internet again. The file holds the whole app.
Local-first storage
Every entry stored in your browser, on your device. No server sync. No leaks. Nothing to breach.
One payment, forever
No subscription, no upgrade tier, no nag. If we shut down OneFileClub tomorrow, your file keeps working.
Data does not sync automatically between phone and desktop
This is a local-first app — everything stays on the device you logged it on. To use it on both phone and desktop, use the built-in JSON or CSV export on one device and import on the other when you want to keep them in step.
Every view, light and dark.
A look at every screen across both themes — your tracker, populated.
Questions
Real answers, no fine print.
Can I import recipes from URLs?+
Not in v1 — paste ingredients and method into the textarea fields. Most users find the act of typing them out improves how often they actually cook them.
Will it work for hundreds of recipes?+
Yes. List view is searchable, sortable, groupable by course. A few hundred entries is well within what one HTML file handles.
Where is my data stored?+
Locally, in your browser, on your device. Nothing is sent to OneFileClub or anyone else — there is no account, no cloud sync, no analytics.
Does it work offline?+
Yes. Once your personalised copy loads the first time, the entire tracker runs from a single HTML file. Airplane mode is fine.
What does 'personalised copy' mean?+
When you buy, OneFileClub stamps a private copy with your licence and deploys it to a unique URL just for you. You bookmark it, install it as an app, or save the file — and the file is yours, even if OneFileClub disappears tomorrow.
What is your refund policy?+
14 days, no questions asked. Email us, we'll process it and disable your private URL.
One payment.
A real cookbook of your own.
We'll personalise a copy and email you a private link. Bookmark it, install it, log tonight's cook.
