Copycat Raising Cane's Sauce - # Project Overview: recipesfastfood.com **Objective:** Create a modern, fast, and appetizing WordPress-style recipe website targeting the US market. The focus is on quick, comfort-food style meals and restaurant copycats. ## 1. Global UI/UX Guidelines * **Vibe & Tone:** Appetizing, energetic, accessible, and clean. * **Color Palette:** Primary brand colors should use warm, food-friendly tones (e.g., Tomato Red, Warm Orange, Mustard Yellow) for accents and buttons. The background should be clean white/off-white (#FFFFFF or #F8F9FA) to make food photography pop. * **Typography:** Bold, modern Sans-serif for headings (e.g., Poppins or Montserrat) and highly legible Sans-serif for body text (e.g., Inter or Roboto). * **Responsiveness:** Must be strictly mobile-first. Most users will view recipes on their phones while cooking. ## 2. Site Structure & Navigation * **Header:** * Logo (Text: "Recipes Fast Food") aligned to the left. * Navigation Links: Copycat Recipes, Air Fryer, 15-Minute Meals, Burgers, Chicken, About. * Prominent Search Bar (crucial for recipe discovery). * **Footer:** * Copyright © recipesfastfood.com * Links: Privacy Policy, Terms of Service, Contact (mockups for now). * Newsletter signup form ("Get quick & easy recipes in your inbox!"). ## 3. Page Specifications ### A. Homepage (Index) * **Hero Section:** A large, eye-catching featured recipe (e.g., "The Ultimate Copycat Burger") with a high-quality mouth-watering image and a "Get Recipe" CTA button. * **Category Grid:** Visual links (image + text) linking to the 5 main categories (Copycat Recipes, Air Fryer, 15-Minute Meals, Burgers, Chicken). * **Latest Recipes Section:** A grid layout of the newest recipe cards. ### B. Category Pages (Dynamic Template) * **Header:** Category Title (e.g., "Air Fryer Recipes") with a short descriptive subtitle. * **Grid Layout:** Display recipe cards belonging to this specific category. ### C. The Recipe Card Component (Used in grids) * High-quality thumbnail image (aspect ratio 4:3 or 1:1). * Recipe Title. * Short metadata tags: Prep Time (e.g., "15 mins"), Category Tag. ### D.
