Kimjang Kimchi Calculator

"How much gochugaru do I need for six cabbages?" If you're making kimchi at home — the big annual kimjang batch or just a few heads — this app turns that question into a complete shopping list in seconds.

How it works
1. Pick your kimchi (napa cabbage kimchi, chonggak radish, kkakdugi, or green onion kimchi)
2. Pick the amount — fresh cabbage heads or pre-brined cabbage in kg (with a family-size guide)
3. Pick your taste — spice level, and shrimp jeot vs anchovy sauce

You'll instantly get a kimjang shopping list:
- Exact amounts of gochugaru, garlic, ginger, jeotgal, radish, green onion, mustard greens, and glutinous rice flour
- Starting from fresh cabbage? A brining guide too — coarse salt amount, brine ratio, and timing
- An estimated budget per ingredient, with prices you can edit to match your local market
- Check the items you need and save your shopping list — tick them off as you shop, and reopen it anytime
- Share the list as an image to your family chat in one tap
- A daily kimjang tip notification each evening to help you prepare

A kimjang guide is included
- How to pick good napa cabbage
- Brining (salt ratio, timing, rinsing)
