Why we're building Forno
Named after the Italian word for oven, Forno started from a familiar frustration: recipes scattered across bookmarks, screenshots and a paid app that still feels like a filing cabinet.
Paprika wins on capture, AnyList on lists, Crouton on cook mode, Mealie on data ownership — but no single app covers the whole loop from finding a recipe to plating dinner. Forno is built by one developer trying to close that gap, in the open, one honest release at a time.
