This project, Servd –‘AI-Based Recipe Generator, is inspired by modern intelligent applications that provide personalized recommendations and automation. The platform enables users to discover recipes by category and cuisine, and more importantly, generate recipes using available ingredients through AI. The system is designed to provide a seamless and interactive user experience. Users can authenticate securely, explore recipes, save their preferences, and download recipes in PDF format. A key feature of this platform is the AI-based ingredient scanner powered by Google Gemini, which analyzes user-provided ingredients and suggests multiple recipes along with nutritional information such as calories and serving size. The frontend of the application is built using Next.js and shadcn/ui, ensuring a responsive and modern user interface. User authentication is handled using Clerk. The backend and content management are managed through Strapi, with Neon as the database. External APIs, such as the Meal API and Unsplash API, are integrated to enrich recipe data and visuals.
