🚀 Getting Started

To get a local copy up and running, follow these simple steps.

Prerequisites

• Flutter SDK: https://flutter.dev/docs/get-started/install
• A code editor like VS Code or Android Studio.
• A configured Firebase project.

Installation

1. Clone the repo

   git clone https://github.com/pirate6581/FurEver-Home.git

2. Navigate to the project directory

   cd FurEver-Home

3. Install dependencies

   flutter pub get

4. Create a .env file in the root of the project for the Gemini API key.

   GEMINI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
   

   Note: The .env file is already listed in .gitignore to ensure your secret key is not checked into version control.

5. Set up your own firebase_options.dart. You can do this by running the FlutterFire CLI:

   flutterfire configure

   This will connect the app to your own Firebase backend.

6. Run the app

   flutter run
