This is a community-driven taco recipe repo. Please fork and submit your own recipes, because the more there are, the more delicious it gets. I'll probably write more here soon.
This repository contains a few different directories:
- full tacos
- this contains full descriptions of tacos. those tacos may contain additional elements from other directories.
- base layers
- this is where you'll find meats, beans, tofu, and other things that make up the 'base' of your taco goodness.
- mixins
- the base is important, but what you add to it is what makes the taco glow.
- condiments
- do you make a motherfucking salsa? do you know how to pickle your own jalapeños? yeah, put it here.
- seasonings
- hot and spicy? rubs and mixes? it's all in here.
- shells
- your base layers and mixins and condiments have to go into something, right? put your tortilla recipes here.
- like_tacos
- a collection of things that are like tacos, e.g. gua bao.
Community assistance in growing the number of directories, or in better organizing or whatever is more more more than welcome.
This is too important not to be properly indexed. Please add your entry to this index when submitting so the world can get taco greatness without having to fish through a bunch of folders.
- For ease, please write your recipes in markdown, and give your files the .md extension.
- If you are creating a full taco, be sure to also create the related base layer ingredient and mixins that go in it. Link to those individual recipes within your full taco to create object-oriented taco goodness.
- Once you have created all your various taco objects (even if it's just one) update the index so that it gets listed. While we do have people checking every now and then, you can help keep the index up-to-date by updating your stuff as part of your pull request.
- Please name your files with underscores_in_place_of_spaces so that links remain readable and aren't%20full%20of%20bullshit.
No better time than the present to learn Git! Thankfully, this repo is pretty simple, and pretty much everything you'd want to know is contained in Github's very handy Fork A Repo section on their also super good help section.
Perhaps others can contribute helpful Git 101 links & tips here.
It's not just the tacos on Tacofancy that are open source, but the idea and the code too. There are some cool projects that are spinning off of Tacofancy, and it's worth collecting them here (if you're working on a tacofancy-inspired project, feel free to add it to README.md)
-
Tacofancy API by @evz is a project to create an API from the objects on Tacofancy. Currently the API is being used to power the taco randomizer which returns a randomly created full taco as JSON.
-
the_great_taco_hunt is a repo dedicated to documenting great taco locations, inspired by Tacofancy.
This whole thing was hastily assembled on a cold November evening with the warmth of some steak, sweet potato, and apple tacos aglow in my belly.
Oh hi, I'm @dansinker.
