Jump to Recipe

About

Ever find yourself scrolling through endless personal stories and anecdotes online when all you really want is to cook something delicious? Jump to Recipe is here to cut through the noise and whisk you straight to what matters: the recipe (and video) itself.

What Jump to Recipe Does
Automatically locates and clicks “Jump to Recipe,” “Skip to Recipe,” or similar anchors on cooking sites

Skips intros, backstories, ads, and personal ramblings so you land exactly where the ingredient list and instructions begin

Supports both static and dynamically-loaded content with a quick polling loop and mutation observer

Why You’ll Love It
Instant Gratification: No more endless scrolling—get to the recipe in seconds

Broad Compatibility: Works on most popular cooking websites and blogs

Lightweight & Non-Intrusive: Tiny script, minimal permissions, runs only when you visit a matching page

Open Source & Privacy-Respecting: No tracking, no data collection—ever

How It Works
On page load, the extension searches for links or buttons whose text or href attribute points to the recipe section (e.g., #itr-recipe-…).

If the target is already in the DOM, it clicks immediately.

If the link appears later (due to AJAX or lazy loading), a brief polling loop checks every 500 ms for up to 10 seconds, then stops.

A console log confirms which selector fired, so you can debug or verify functionality.

Key Features
Precise Selectors: Targets anchors beginning with #itr-recipe- and any element with “recipe” or “video” in its text

Dynamic Injection Handling: MutationObserver fallback ensures we catch content loaded after initial render

Timeout Guardrail: Automatically halts polling after 10 seconds to conserve CPU

Easy Installation: No complex settings—install, enable, and browse as usual

Getting Started
Install the extension from the Chrome Web Store.

Visit your favorite recipe page.

Watch the extension instantly skip to the recipe (check DevTools Console for a “✅ Jump-to-recipe link clicked” message).
