Show HN: We're two coffee nerds who built an AI app to track beans and recipes

It’s available on iOS now: https://itunes.apple.com/app/id6499280064

We got into specialty coffee during COVID and, like many others, fell deep down the rabbit hole. Along the way, we ran into the same frustrations:

- A drawer full of empty coffee bags.

- No simple way to track grind size, rest dates, notes—by bean.

- My coffee history scattered across photos, screenshots, notebooks, and half-memories.

Poking at the CSS if() Function a Little More: Conditional Color Theming

Chrome 137 shipped the if() CSS function, so it’s totally possible we’ll see other browsers implement it, though it’s tough to know exactly when.
