Want to contributing an entirely new recipe! Awesome!
### GitHub Codespaces
[GitHub Codespaces](https://github.com/features/codespaces) provides a browser-based VSCode interface, pre-configured for your development environment. For no-hassle contributions to the cookbook with realtime previews, visit the [repo](https://github.com/geek-cookbook/geek-cookbook), and when clicking the download button (*where you're usually get the URL to clone a repo*), click on "**Open with CodeSpaces**" instead:

You'll shortly be dropped into the VSCode interface, with mkdocs/material pre-installed and running. Any changes you make are auto-saved (*there's no "Save" button*), and available in the port-forwarded preview within seconds:

Once happy with your changes, drive VSCode as normal to create a branch, commit, push, and create a pull request. You can also abandon the browser window at any time, and return later to pick up where you left off (*even on a different device!*)
