I found and bookmarked this site today, not only does it have loads of substitutes, it also points out which recipe type it is best for and discusses things you may not immediately consider
eg if replacing brown sugar ... " it's an acidic ingredient. Therefore, it activates the baking soda in the recipe. If your brown sugar substitute for cookies or other recipes is not acidic, add another ingredient, such as lemon juice or vinegar, to trigger an acid-base reaction for leavening."
They also have recipes, with an auto-convert button for metric - https://www.alsothecrumbsplease.com/category/substitutions
