Choose a format to write recipes in #4
Description
There are many recipe formats.
They seem to (roughly) fall into three categories: XML Based, YAML Based, (Formatted) Text based.
A more detailed look is needed but, assuming they all support more or less the same properies, none really appeals to me.
So, rather than invent yet another format myself, I was thinking of using RDFa in combination with certain vocab sources (Schema.org, DBPedia, Dublin Core).
That would make things easy enough to write (at least for me), allow parsing the content (to convert to other formats if needed) without loosing the ability to create an input UI later on.
As RDFa is just HTML + some custom properties, the output can be read without any formatting needed.
From a portability perspective that also seems like a good idea...
