Timeline

Design ~1 month · Full build 2 Oct – 18 Nov 2025 (~7 weeks)

Tools

Figma · Kotlin / Jetpack Compose · Firebase

Responsibilities
  • Full user flows
  • High-fidelity screens
  • Design system
  • UI & localisation integration support
Outcome

My concept was selected over a competing interface in internal review and shipped to production.

Overview

ChefGPT is an AI-powered recipe app for Android that helps home cooks turn the ingredients they already have into recipes worth making. Built with Kotlin and Jetpack Compose, it combines AI-generated recipe suggestions with core cooking-companion features — ingredient-based search, saved favourites, shopping lists, and meal planning — all backed by Firebase for authentication and cloud storage.

I led the UX/UI design for the full mobile experience, from early flows through high-fidelity screens and a reusable design system, then stayed involved through UI integration and localisation during the build so design intent survived into the final product.
