Hi everyone!
For the last few months, I’ve been obsessing over hydration percentages and fermentation times, balancing my life as a professional pizza chef and a solo developer.
I realized I wanted a tool that was professional enough for technical doughs, but simple enough for a Sunday pizza at home. After countless friends asked me for recipes or tips on how to bake the perfect pizza, I decided to build this app.
This is my first official project, and it's a huge milestone for me: I’m currently working on transitioning from the kitchen to a developer role, and this app is the first step in that journey.
So, I built Easy Dough. It’s a native Android app designed to take the guesswork out of the process without the clutter.
⚠️ Availability Note: For now, the app is only available in Europe. I'm working on expanding to other regions soon!
What to expect:
- Native & Modern: Built with Jetpack Compose, fully optimized for Android 15 (Edge-to-Edge).
- Focus on Direct Doughs: Simple, reliable results for home and pro bakers (Biga/Poolish coming in the future!).
- Clean UI: I’ve tried to keep it as "flour-hand friendly" as possible.
- Language Support: Currently available in English and Italian.
Monetization Transparency:
The app is free to use. It includes a small banner and an occasional interstitial (no spam) to help me cover the flour for my tests! 🍕 (No hidden trackers or sketchy permissions).
What's next:
I'm working on a Flour Guide to help users pick the right flour strength. I know that (W) values are mostly an Italian thing, so I’ll be bridging the gap by including protein percentages and international naming conventions to make it useful for bakers everywhere once the app goes global.
I’m a solo dev and I’d love to get your honest feedback on the UX and the calculations. If you're a baker based in Europe, let me know what you think!
