Ashcombe Potluck

Plan the table, not the group chat. Ashcombe Potluck turns a shared meal into a clear board of courses, dishes and guests, so you know what is coming before anyone turns on an oven. Nobody brings three salads again Set up your gathering with Mains, Sides, Salads, Desserts, Drinks and Extras, then decide how many dish slots each course gets. Every slot holds a dish name, who is bringing it, how many it serves and where it stands: planned, confirmed or brought. See the gaps at a glance A progress ring tells you exactly how full the table is, like "9 of 13 slots filled". Straight under it, plain warnings point at what is missing: no drinks yet, no desserts yet, nothing vegetarian on the table, or dishes that still need a guest. Fill a slot and the board updates on the spot. Know who eats what Tag each dish as Vegetarian, Vegan, Spicy, Contains nuts or Gluten-free recipe. When a friend asks what they can eat, the answer is already on the board. Keep the guest list honest Add guests to each gathering with an RSVP of Going, Maybe or Can't come, their party size and a short note. Each guest card shows how many dishes they have signed up for, and the event page adds up how many people to expect. Hand everyone their list The Bring-list tab groups dishes by guest, so each person sees exactly what they are carrying. Tick dishes off as they arrive at the door. Your own shopping list sits right below it for the ice, napkins and spare spoons you promised yourself you would not forget. Send the plan in one tap Copy a tidy plain-text summary of the whole gathering to your clipboard: date, place, your note, every guest with their dishes, open slots by course and your shopping list. Paste it into whatever chat your friends already use. Run more than one gathering Birthday picnic next month, office lunch on Friday? Keep several gatherings side by side and switch between them from the Guests and Bring-list tabs. Easy on the eyes, day or night Warm tomato, basil and saffron colours in daylight, and a matching dark theme when your phone switches over. A sample Sunday garden potluck is waiting on first launch, with guests and dishes already on the board, so you can see how it all fits before you plan your own.
