The chatbot is powered by Gemini Flash, an advanced language model, to deliver intelligent and context-aware responses. The project optimizes image quality and format using Sharp.js, ensures efficient module bundling with Rollup and Vite, and manages user authentication and web notifications through Firebase-admin.\n\nCheck the application live here - https://chatterbox-kunal.web.app/\n\n## Demo Video\n[![Watch the video](http://img.youtube.com/vi/uIM5_hsWooI/0.jpg)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uIM5_hsWooI)\n\n## Features\n\n- **Real-time Communication**:\n\n  - Supports image, audio, and text messaging using `socket.io`.\n  - Ensures fast and reliable data transmission in real-time.\n\n- **AI-Assisted Chatbot - Chatterbot**:\n\n  - Powered by **Gemini Flash**, offering cutting-edge language understanding and response generation.\n  - Built using Langchain and VertexAI.\n  - Provides intelligent responses and contextual assistance.\n\n- **Image Optimization**:\n\n  - Utilizes `Sharp.js` to optimize image quality.\n  - Converts images to the WEBP format to enhance performance.\n\n- **Efficient Code Bundling**:\n\n  - Managed by `Rollup` and `Vite`.\n  - Achieves a production size of just 64MB, optimizing for speed and storage.\n\n- **User Authentication and Notifications**:\n  - Managed by `Firebase-admin` to handle secure user authentication.\n  - Sends real-time web notifications to users.\n\n## Installation\n\n1. **Clone the repository**:\n\n   ```bash\n   git clone https://github.com/its-kunal/chatterbox\n   cd chatterbox\n   ```\n\n2. **Install dependencies**:\n\n   ```bash\n   cd server \u0026\u0026 npm install\n   cd ../client \u0026\u0026 npm install\n   ```\n\n3. **Configure environment variables**:\n\n   - Ensure that all necessary API keys, Firebase credentials, and other environment variables are properly set in a `.env`, `.env.local` file.\n\n4. **Run the development server**:\n\n   ```bash\n   cd server \u0026\u0026 npm run dev\n   ```\n\n5. **Build for production**:\n   ```bash\n   npm run build\n   ```\n\n## Technologies Used\n\n- **Gemini Flash** - The core LLM powering the AI-assisted chatbot, enabling advanced language processing and contextually intelligent interactions.\n- **Socket.io**: For real-time, bidirectional communication.\n- **Langchain \u0026 VertexAI**: Powering the AI-assisted chatbot.\n- **Sharp.js**: Image processing and optimization.\n- **Rollup \u0026 Vite**: Module bundlers for efficient builds.\n- **Firebase-admin**: Managing user authentication and notifications.\n\n## Contributing\n\nContributions are welcome!
