What if a developer portfolio could do more than showcase projects and a resume? What if you could actually talk to it — and control the experience through AI?
That idea inspired me to build Kiddo, an interactive AI assistant integrated into my personal portfolio, allowing visitors, recruiters, and fellow developers to explore my professional journey in an entirely new way.
🌟 Meet Kiddo v1.0 — Now Live!
🧠 Portfolio-Aware Intelligence — Ask Kiddo anything about me, my projects, technical skills, professional experience, achievements, or development journey. It's like having an interactive version of me!
⚡ Real-Time AI Streaming — Experience smooth, conversational interactions with responses streaming directly into the chat interface.
🎤 Voice-Powered Conversations — Speak to Kiddo using your microphone and listen to its responses for a more natural, hands-free experience.
🌍 Multilingual Conversations — Interact with Kiddo in English, Malayalam, Hindi, and Tamil, making the experience accessible to a wider audience.
🎮 AI-Powered Portfolio Controls — Kiddo doesn't just answer questions. It can interact with my portfolio through custom commands!
