🤸 Quick Start

📦 Prerequisites

• Node.js
• npm
• Git

⏬ Installation

git clone https://github.com/adrianhajdin/project_next_13_ai_prompt_sharing.git
cd project_next_13_ai_prompt_sharing
npm install

🚧 Environment Configuration

Before launching PromptPal, set up your environment variables. Create a file named .env in the root directory and add the following:

NEXTAUTH_URL=http://localhost:3000
NEXTAUTH_URL_INTERNAL=http://localhost:3000
NEXTAUTH_SECRET=your_generated_secret
GOOGLE_ID=your_google_client_id
GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET=your_google_client_secret
MONGODB_URI=your_mongodb_connection_string

Replace the placeholder values with your actual credentials. You can obtain these credentials by signing up on these corresponding websites from Google Cloud Console, Cryptpool (for random Auth Secret), and MongoDB.

🔐 Credential Sources

To run PromptPal securely, you'll need to generate credentials from the following platforms:

Provider	Credential	Description
Google Cloud Console	GOOGLE_ID & GOOGLE_CLIENT_SECRET	Used for OAuth 2.0 authentication via NextAuth
Cryptool OpenSSL Generator	NEXTAUTH_SECRET	Secure, random string for token signing
MongoDB Atlas	MONGODB_URI	Connection string for your cloud-hosted MongoDB database

💡 After generating these values, add them to your .env file before starting the project.
