AI For Fun! Électrique Chats at Hack the Kitty, Built with Kiro.
Short summary
A developer built Madame Minou, a cat astrologer app, using Kiro's spec-driven methodology and Claude via Amazon Bedrock. The approach pairs deterministic structure (computed sun signs) with AI flavor for narrative, shipped with honest roadmapping for future versions. Demonstrates human-in-the-loop AI development, pragmatic deployment tradeoffs, and clear architectural patterns for building AI-assisted features.
- •Spec-first development with Kiro maintained consistency across multi-session AI-assisted builds
- •Deterministic + AI flavor pattern: facts computed in code, Claude only provides storytelling layer
- •Shipped v1 with core feature complete, deferred nice-to-haves as honest v2 roadmap rather than incomplete features
Generated with AI, which can make mistakes.
Is this a good recommendation for you?
