Build with AI: The "Pantry Pilot" — Vision-to-Action with Gemini 3

The Mission 🍎 ➡️ 🥗
Ever wanted to point your phone at a random ingredient and have a professional chef (AI) instantly tell you how to cook it?

In this hands-on workshop, we are moving from "Chatting with AI" to "Seeing with AI." We will build a standalone Flutter app called the Pantry Pilot. Using the brand-new Gemini 3 Flash multimodal capabilities and Google Antigravity’s agentic physics, you’ll create an app that "sees" through your camera and generates floating, interactive recipe cards in real-time.

What You’ll Build:

The AI Eyes: A camera feed that captures images for Gemini 3 to analyze.

The Recipe Brain: A logic layer that turns a picture of an onion into a 3-step gourmet instruction set.

The Floating UI: A physics-based interface using Antigravity that makes your recipes drift and bounce on the screen.

Tech Stack for Tonight:

Gemini 3 Flash (Speed & Multimodal Magic)

Google Antigravity (Agentic UI & Physics)

Flutter (The Beautiful Canvas)

🎟️ Do I need to have attended Session 1?
Nope! This is a completely standalone project. We will provide a "Jumpstart Script" that handles all the boring setup for you in 60 seconds. Whether you're a Senior Dev or just getting started, you’ll leave with a working app.

📦 What you need:

Your Laptop with Flutter installed (flutter doctor should be green!).

A Gemini API Key (Free Tier is 100% fine! Get it at aistudio.google.com).

Google Antigravity IDE (Standalone or Plugin).

We will briefly go over installing Antigravity, Flutter, and obtaining a Gemini API Key. No worries if you have any issues completing those tasks.
