1. Clone the repository:

   git clone <repository-url>
   cd ai-powered-note-manager

2. Install dependencies:

   npm install

3. Environment Variables: Create a .env file in the root of your project and configure the following variables:

   # NextAuth Authentication
   NEXTAUTH_URL=http://localhost:3000
   NEXTAUTH_SECRET=your_nextauth_secret_key
   
   # Google OAuth (Required for Google Login)
   GOOGLE_CLIENT_ID=your_google_client_id
   GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=your_google_client_secret
   
   # GitHub OAuth (Required for GitHub Login)
   GITHUB_CLIENT_ID=your_github_client_id
   GITHUB_CLIENT_SECRET=your_github_client_secret
   
   # Database Connection (MongoDB)
   MONGODB_URI=mongodb://localhost:27017/ainotemanager # Or your MongoDB Atlas string
   
   # OpenAI (Required for AI features)
   OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key

4. Run the npm Scripts

These are typical scripts defined inside package.json:

• dev → Start development server
• build → Create production build
• start → Run production server
• test → Run tests
• lint → Check code quality
• format → Format code
• preview → Preview production build (commonly used in Vite)

5. Open the App: Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.
