Common questions

Do I need to host Salt Rim separately from the Bar Assistant server?

Salt Rim is a web client that connects to your Bar Assistant server. It builds to a static webpage that can be hosted anywhere.

Why does Salt Rim still show old content after an update?

The browser usually caches files for the Salt Rim frontend and PWA. Try another browser or incognito mode to verify it is a cache issue.

Can I export recipes and import ingredients for backup or migration?

You can import and export data in various supported formats. Recipes can be exported as JSON, YAML, or Markdown, and ingredients can be bulk imported via CSV.
