yours to take anywhere

Ways to take your tin with you

Nothing in Tinfully is locked in. Every tin, and every recipe inside it, can leave in the format that suits the person asking. The first three are for the family; the last three are for the archivist in the family. They are all on the tin's Settings tab.

Plain text

Everyone

Just the words, exactly as written, in a .txt file that opens on any computer or phone. Good for pasting into an email or a family history.

Markdown

Anyone who uses a notes app

A readable text format with headings and lists. Apple Notes, Obsidian, Notion, Google Docs and most writing tools open it and keep the structure. Recipe cards come through as ingredient lists and numbered steps.

Spreadsheet (CSV)

The family organizer

One row per page with the document, who added it, type, date, language, whether it has been checked, and the words. Opens in Excel, Numbers or Google Sheets.

JSON

Developers

The complete data in a structured, machine-readable form: every page, reading, correction, entity and recipe card. For moving to other software or building something of your own.

IIIF

Archives, libraries, museums

The International Image Interoperability Framework is the open standard heritage institutions use to share page images and their descriptions. Your tin has a IIIF manifest and every page has a IIIF image service, so a IIIF viewer such as Mirador or the Universal Viewer can show your pages with deep zoom, and a digital collections platform can import the tin. Today these addresses work for signed-in members; a share link for outside viewers is coming.
