Features

Recipe filters
Recipes can be filtered by different groups such as Base Building, Crafting Components, Exosuit Technology, ETC. The available filters were pulled from the categories on the No Man's Sky Wiki
Copy to Clipboard
Simply click the button provided to copy the Total Ingredients section to your Windows Clipboard. Then you can save the ingredients you need for later.
Lightweight and Fast
Crafting Calculator runs as a small standalone Windows Executable. The calculations happen instantenously when you add the recipes, and it can calculate total ingredients for quantities up to 500 for each individual recipe.
Windows Smart Screen
If you have Windows Defender Smart Screen enabled, it may attempt to block you from running Crafting Calculator. This is because the application is not signed with an EV Code Signing Certificate. My reasoning behind this is that I cannot justify spending 300$ or more on a certificate for something that I plan on distributing for free. I have signed the code with a self signed certificate. Alternatively if you do not trust the EXE distributed here, you can view the project on GitHub and checkout the code in Visual Studio then build the executable yourself.

Once you have done this one time then you should not have to do it when you run Crafting Calculator in the future unless you download it again.
