- The docker install doesn’t take a long time, if you read the instructions you can download their YAML file and run only one command. But on the GitHub they have instructions for desktop app mode if you don’t want docker.
- It’ll take up more resources outside docker but it’s a small PHP app.
- No it isn’t.
- Have a look at the examples, if you are not familiar with docker you might need to look at the embedded desktop app as you’ll run into this issue with any alternative in docker.

Do you use docker for anything else self hosted? You should give it a try. I literally had not heard of grocy till I read your post but I self host other things with docker. I googled them, visited their github looked at their docker instructions - theirs downloading a docker compose file and lsio’s which gave a run option rather than compose.
I pulled up an ssh to my server from my phone and literally entered the run command from here just modified to have my preferred storage path.
docker run -d \ --name=grocy \ -e PUID=1000 \ -e PGID=1000 \ -e TZ=Etc/UTC \ -p 9283:80 \ -v ~/.config/grocy:/config \ --restart unless-stopped \ lscr.io/linuxserver/grocy:latest``` I then opened my browser to http://ip:9283 and was prompted with a username and password. I googled and found out the default is admin/admin. I now have grocy temporarily running on my server. If I want to run it permanently I'd include it in my existing docker-compose stack or create a new one with just it in it. I understand it's frustrating and you may not want to use grocy after all and someone might have a good alternative, but getting to terms with docker will make your self hosting life much easier - it took me longer to type this post than it took me to get grocy up and running with docker.

You could look at the awesome-selfhosted list, specifically these two sections:
awesome-selfhosted.net/…/recipe-management.html
awesome-selfhosted.net/…/task-management--to-do-l…
I don’t have any experience with any of those, but there might be something that fits your needs.

It seems it’s for recipes only

I remember Grocy being pretty easy to setup with Docker. Just set up your compose file and start it up.
Grocy already lets you add expiration dates and non-food items.
