What's in My Fridge? — An Open-Source AI Cooking Assistant I Built for a Friend

·1 views

The problem A friend of mine has a habit: they open the fridge, stare at a handful of random ingredients — some eggs, half a chicken, a bag of rice — and just... close it again. Not because there's nothing to cook, but because turning "what I have" into "what I could make" takes a kind of mental effort that's easy to skip when you're tired.

I Built a Customer Support AI System to Help a Friend Find Answers Faster

I built a Customer Support AI System to help a friend who was practicing customer-support workflows and needed a faster way to find accurate answers from support documentation.

Support teams may have FAQs, refund policies, account policies, payment documentation, and other reference documents spread across multiple files.
