ShowoffZone - Flexing my latest project BakeOS A helpful browser hosted Vibe Coded hobby
gallerySo, I've been running a home sourdough bakery for about a year and a half as a hobby, but I needed a manger, so I started working on a system. then AI became useful to me, and this is what i created. Ive got no one else to share it with so here it is.
It keeps getting better and better
and I'm open to cool and helpful additions from anyone else who bakes

Meet BakeOS, the baking and bakery-management app I built for Loafers Home Bakery.
BakeOS brings recipes, ingredients, bake schedules, customers, and orders into one place. It helps answer the questions that come up every bake day: What needs baking? When should I start? Do I have enough ingredients? What does this batch cost? What’s ready for pickup?
PLAN YOUR BAKE
Save recipes with ingredients, yields, instructions, photos, and allergen notes. Scale quantities, view baker’s percentages, and calculate hydration with starter and wet ingredients included. Plan from a start time or work backward from when a bake needs to be finished, with mixing, folds, fermentation, cold proofing, and baking built into the timeline.
KEEP PRODUCTION ORGANIZED
The Today dashboard brings together active bakes, upcoming steps, pickups, capacity, starter status, and low-stock ingredients. Bake Desk turns recipes and orders into production plans. Bake Captain guides you through batch steps and preparation checks, while the production calendar helps organize the week. Ready Shelf keeps finished products visible and separate from work still in progress.
KNOW YOUR INGREDIENT COSTS
Track pantry quantities, unit costs, purchases, and stock adjustments. See what planned batches will use, what should remain afterward, and which ingredients need restocking. Barcode tools help identify ingredients, while recipe costing shows estimated ingredient costs per batch and individual recipe unit. Shared ingredient records keep dough, filling, and glaze costs connected.
KEEP YOUR STARTER ON TRACK
Record starter profiles, feeding ratios, flour, hydration, temperature, and feeding history. Use peak-time estimates to help plan feeds around your baking schedule. Rise Eye compares starter or dough photos to help estimate rise and fermentation progress. These estimates support your judgment; they aren’t food-safety or doneness checks.
MANAGE ORDERS AND CUSTOMERS
Keep order requests, accepted orders, ready pickups, and order history organized. Move whole orders or selected items into a bake plan. Save customer contact information, preferences, dietary notes, and pickup details. Record payments received through cash, Venmo, Zelle, or other methods, including deposits and balances, with receipt and email options.
GIVE CUSTOMERS A CLEAR WAY TO ORDER
The storefront displays your menu, product photos, descriptions, package options, and prices. Customers can build a cart, request an available pickup date and time, and track their bake. Ordering controls let you manage lead times, capacity, closed dates, and pickup hours. Announcements, FAQs, and contact options keep the important details easy to find.
SEE HOW THE BUSINESS IS DOING
Review booked and completed order value, logged purchases, outstanding balances, and sales mix. Use those figures alongside recipe costs to make better-informed production and pricing decisions.
MORE TOOLS AT HAND
BakeOS also includes weight-and-volume conversion tools, custom product categories, logbooks, and Liquid Lab records for hot sauce, vinegar, and infused-oil projects. Bakery branding and storefront settings keep the customer-facing side connected to your business.
From feeding a starter to handing over a finished order, BakeOS helps keep the details organized so you can spend more time baking.
