KitchenOwl by cloudimg
KitchenOwl is an open source, self hosted app for managing a household's food. Several people share the same shopping list and items check off in real time as anyone shops, so the list stays current whoever is at the store. You keep a collection of recipes, add their ingredients to the list in one tap, and plan meals across the week on a calendar that can fill the shopping list for you. It also tracks grocery expenses so a household can split the cost. The all in one KitchenOwl container serves the Flask API and the built Flutter web app on one origin, so the same account works from the web and the mobile apps.
Secure by default, no known credential
KitchenOwl's upstream token signing secret is a well known fixed value. cloudimg generates a fresh unique signing secret on the first boot of every instance, before the app starts, and seeds a single administrator account with a per instance random password written to a root only file, so no two deployments share a credential and the upstream default never governs a running instance. Open self sign up is disabled and onboarding closes once the administrator exists, so members are added by the administrator rather than by anyone who finds the URL.
What is included
- The AGPL-3.0 licensed KitchenOwl all in one container, pinned by image digest and captured into the instance so it starts in seconds
- A SQLite database created empty on first boot, on a dedicated data volume, so there is nothing else to deploy
- nginx reverse proxy on port 80 with WebSocket upgrade for realtime shopping list sync; the app is bound to loopback
- A unique token signing secret and a per instance admin account generated per instance on first boot, never baked into the image
- The latest security patches applied at build time and unattended security upgrades enabled
Licensing
KitchenOwl is free and open source under the AGPL-3.0 license; there is no per user or per seat software fee. The cloudimg charge covers packaging, security patching, image maintenance and 24/7 expert support. CPU only, no GPU required.

Every deployment is paired with a step by step guide and backed by 24/7 cloudimg support with a guaranteed 24 hour response SLA. Guide: https://www.cloudimg.co.uk/guides/kitchenowl-aws/ . Support: support@cloudimg.co.uk .

Highlights
- A shared household food hub: several people use one live shopping list that checks off in real time as anyone shops, a collection of recipes whose ingredients add to the list in one tap, a weekly meal planner that can fill the list for you, and grocery expense tracking. The all in one container serves the API and the Flutter web app on one origin, so the same account works from the web and the mobile apps.
- Secure by default with no known credential. The upstream token signing secret is a fixed public value; cloudimg generates a fresh unique secret on first boot before the app starts, and seeds one administrator with a per instance random password written to a root only file. Open self sign up is disabled and onboarding closes once the administrator exists, so no two deployments share a login and the upstream default never governs a running instance.
- Ready in seconds and production shaped. The pinned container is captured into the image so there is no first boot download, an empty SQLite database is created on a dedicated data volume you can snapshot and grow independently, an nginx reverse proxy on port 80 carries WebSocket upgrades for realtime sync while the app stays bound to loopback, and the image is fully patched at build time and backed by 24/7 cloudimg support.

Amazon Machine Image (AMI)
An AMI is a virtual image that provides the information required to launch an instance. Amazon EC2 (Elastic Compute Cloud) instances are virtual servers on which you can run your applications and workloads, offering varying combinations of CPU, memory, storage, and networking resources. You can launch as many instances from as many different AMIs as you need.

Usage instructions
After you launch the instance, browse to http://SERVER_IP_OR_DNS/ to open the KitchenOwl web app. Retrieve the administrator credentials generated uniquely for this instance on first boot by connecting over SSH as the ubuntu user and running: sudo cat /root/kitchenowl-credentials.txt. Sign in with that ADMIN_USERNAME and ADMIN_PASSWORD, then create your first household and shopping list. To invite more members, add them from Settings while signed in as the administrator (open self sign up stays disabled). Full walkthrough: https://www.cloudimg.co.uk/guides/kitchenowl-aws/ .
