Using the marketplace

The Zoodl Marketplace lets you browse, search, and use instruction sets without creating an account. When you find a recipe you like, click Open in Zoodl to launch it in the Zoodl desktop app (requires sign-in).

• Search — use the search bar to find recipes by keyword (title, summary, and content are indexed)
• Filter — narrow results by tags, author type (community / official), and sort order (recent, popular, most views)
• Tags — click a tag badge to quickly filter by that tag

Creating instruction sets

Signed-in users can create and publish their own instruction sets from the New page. Each instruction set requires a title, a JSON body describing the steps, and optional tags, summary, and GitHub link.

Accounts & tiers

• Anonymous — browse and search. Recent views are stored in your browser (localStorage).
• Free user — create up to 10 private recipes, publish public recipes, like and save.
• Official — verified accounts with unlimited private recipes and an official badge.

API

The backend exposes a REST API at /api/v1. Interactive documentation is available at the Swagger UI when running locally.

The full API surface covers auth (register, login), templates (CRUD, thumbs, share), tags, and user history.
