Recipe Builder Preview

Standalone two-page Next.js app for previewing the Massed Compute build-it experience: stacks + apps tabs (/mcp) and the use-case builder (/use-case-builder). No auth, no live DB — all data is baked in at data/*.json for the team to play with.

Run

npm install
npm run dev

Then open http://localhost:3000. The root redirects to /mcp.

Refreshing data

When you want to pull the latest recipes/templates out of the upstream Postgres, rerun the dump script in the main repo (vm-marketplace) — it writes to ~/recipe-builder/data/recipes.json and ~/recipe-builder/data/templates.json. Instance pricing and OS images are hardcoded in data/instances.json and data/vm-images.json; edit them by hand.

What's not here

• Auth (intentionally — preview only)
• Live MySQL VM-product data (we hardcode prices/SKUs)
• The MCP API routes (/api/mcp/*) — only the use-case-builder routes are needed by the two pages
• Dashboard sidebar / chrome
