Meaty Times is maintained in the open. Whether you have found a bug, have an idea, or want to contribute code or cooking rules, here is how to get involved.

Get help using the app

Start with the Help guide — it covers meat selection, temperatures, timing, serve-at planning, and common questions.

If you are still stuck, search existing issues on GitHub in case someone has already asked the same question.

Report a problem

Found incorrect timings, a confusing message, or something that does not work?

  1. Go to the issue tracker.
  2. Click New issue.
  3. Describe what happened and what you expected.
  4. Include useful details:
    • Meat type and weight
    • Doneness (if shown)
    • Serving time (if using Serve at)
    • Browser and device (if relevant)

Please do not include personal information you do not want to be public — issues are visible to everyone.

Request an enhancement

Have an idea for a new meat type, units, or feature?

  1. Open a new issue on GitHub.
  2. Use a clear title (for example “Enhancement: support turkey”).
  3. Explain the problem you are trying to solve and why it would help home cooks.

Checking existing issues first avoids duplicates.

Security issues

Do not report security vulnerabilities in public issues. Follow the process in SECURITY.md on GitHub, including private vulnerability reporting where available.
