LiveWe Got Food at Home — Recipes from your ingredients
An intelligent virtual fridge that recognizes available ingredients and generates personalized recipes based on the user’s preferences.
ReactTypeScriptViteOpenAI APIVercel Blob
Read the full overview
A Web application that helps users decide what to cook with ingredients they already have. Users can fill a virtual fridge manually or upload a photo so AI can recognize ingredients and automatically organize them by storage area. We Got Food at Home then generates recipes based on available time, desired complexity, dietary preferences, favorite cuisines, and current mood. Missing ingredients can be grouped into a grocery list and sent by text message. I designed the retro UX/UI, developed the responsive interface, and integrated image analysis, recipe generation, automatic ingredient placement, and a system that generates and caches consistent food illustrations with Vercel Blob.

A bilingual showcase designed end to end to demonstrate my ability to turn an idea into a polished, accessible, production-ready Web product.
Next.jsTypeScriptTailwind CSSnext-intlSupabase
Read the full overview
This bilingual website presents my background, skills, and applications through a clear and cohesive experience for both technical and non-technical recruiters. It brings together my professional experience, certifications, and detailed project profiles, with direct links to published apps, support pages, and privacy policies. A dynamic journal lets me share what I am learning, while a client-validated form sends contact requests by email. I designed and developed the complete responsive interface, the French-English localization architecture, and the server routes. I integrated Supabase to store journal entries, Resend to deliver messages, and next-intl for localization. Localized metadata, canonical URLs, and navigation adapted to smaller screens complete the experience. The portfolio targets the Web across desktop, tablet, and mobile devices.
