02 / 03 — Full-stack development (solo)
A full-stack recipe-sharing platform with a community hub, a resource library, and a custom admin console.
Homepage
Overview
FoodFusion is a recipe discovery and community platform built in PHP and MySQL — recipes are browsable by difficulty and cuisine, sortable by newest, most liked, or most viewed, and each one carries ratings, cook time, and likes.
Beyond recipes, it has a full community layer: a contributor leaderboard, a live activity feed of comments and likes, and running totals for members, published recipes, and engagement. A separate resources section offers downloadable recipe-card PDFs, technique guides, and an instructional video library.
The whole platform is backed by a custom-built admin console — not a plugin or template — with its own dashboard analytics, content management for recipes/users/resources, taxonomy management for cuisines and dietary preferences, a raw database table viewer, and a message inbox.
