Ingredient lists in a recipe

Story

Recipes and their ingredient lists (click on lime to see list of other recipes that use lime) would make for a great example usage for Wagn, except that recipe ingredient lists typically include quantities (and sometimes instructions), e.g.:

  • 3 egg whites
  • 1/4 cup lime juice
  • 3 tomatoes, diced

 



Tag with the Ticket, Idea, Blueprint and/or Deck it's relevant to:

 

The closest i've gotten to this as things are is with a Pointer whose items defaults to a cardtype (see http://grouppatternlanguage.org/wagn/Visual+*plus_cards ), which can then have two or more inclusions in it.

 

But for this user story, that would mean giving a unique name to each ingredient/quantity pair in each recipe. Not user-friendly.

 

Is a convincing example of why we want to allow cards without names?


I guess the Wagn-y workaround is to use autonaming and Wagneer the name to not show up?
