How to Play Menus With Friends and Create Your Own Menu Template - Template & Tutorial (Coda)

This is a tutorial on how to play Menus With Friends so you can share a nice menu template with friends (coda.io/@atc/everything-from-home-evh-activitie…) from the Everything From Home template.

Easily jump to sections in this video:
* Intro - 0:00
* Add items to your menu - 0:44
* See your formatted menu - 1:19
* View your friends' menus - 1:37
* Interact with menu outline - 1:53

You and your friends can add meals and beverages you are eating and drinking every day, and Coda turns your list into a nice shareable menu like you might see at a restaurant.

This idea came from a friend of mine who was making all of his meals at home and couldn't go out to eat anymore due to COVID-19's restrictions on restaurants. To get the feeling that he is still going out to eat and has a variety of meals he can choose from, he created his own prix-fixe "menu" that he could pick from every day. The key is that the menu simply consists of things he was already eating every day.

This template allows you to:
* Have multiple people add items to their respective menu
* View a nice formatted menu of the items added
* A dropdown to pick a friend's menu you want to view
