git clone https://github.com/varun442/AI-Course-Generator.git
cd AI-Course-Generatornpm install
# or
yarn installCreate a .env.local file in the root directory and configure the following variables:
NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_FRONTEND_API=<your-clerk-frontend-api>
CLERK_API_KEY=<your-clerk-api-key>
GEMINI_API_KEY=<your-gemini-api-key>
YOUTUBE_API_KEY=<your-youtube-api-key>
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://<username>:<password>@<host>:<port>/<database-name>
NEXT_PUBLIC_SITE_URL=http://localhost:3000
Ensure you have PostgreSQL installed and create a database. Use Drizzle ORM to set up the schema:
npx drizzle-kit migrate:runTo start the development server, run:
npm run dev
# or
yarn devVisit the app at [http://localhost:3000](https://ai-course-crafter-n-generator.vercel.app/).
Clerk provides user authentication for the application. Ensure you set up your project on Clerk's website and configure the necessary API keys in the .env.local file.
This app leverages the Gemini API to generate AI-driven content for courses. You need to sign up for an API key from Gemini API.
For video integration, the application uses the YouTube Data API. You can get an API key from the Google Developer Console.
