2. Clone this repository to your local computer.

3. Create `.env.local` file in **root** directory.

4. Contents of `.env.local`:



```env

# .env.local



# disable telemetry

NEXT_TELEMETRY_DISABLED="1"



# app base url

NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_BASE_URL="http://localhost:3000"



# clerk api keys

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY="pk_test_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"

CLERK_SECRET_KEY="sk_test_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"



# clerk webhook

CLERK_WEBHOOK_SECRET="whsec_XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"



# clerk redirect urls

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_SIGN_IN_URL="/sign-in"

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_SIGN_UP_URL="/sign-up"

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_SIGN_IN_FALLBACK_REDIRECT_URL="/"

NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_SIGN_UP_FALLBACK_REDIRECT_URL="/"



# neon db uri

UPLOADTHING_TOKEN="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"



# openai api base url

OPENAI_API_BASE_URL="https://api.openai.com/v1"



# open ai api key cookie name and verification secret (generated by `openssl rand -hex 32`)

OPENAI_API_KEY_COOKIE_NAME="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"

VERIFICATION_SECRET="XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX"



```



### 5. Disable Telemetry (Optional)



```bash

DO_NOT_TRACK="1"

CLERK_TELEMETRY_DISABLED="1"

CLERK_TELEMETRY_DEBUG="1"

NEXT_TELEMETRY_DISABLED="1"

```



- These disable analytics/telemetry from Clerk and Next.js. Keep them as provided.



---



### 6. App Base URL



```bash

NEXT_PUBLIC_APP_BASE_URL="http://localhost:3000"

```



- Keep as `http://localhost:3000` during development.

- Change to your deployed URL (e.g., `https://yourdomain.com`) in production.



---



### 7. Clerk (Authentication)



- Go to [Clerk Dashboard](https://dashboard.clerk.com/).

- Create a new application.

- Navigate to **API Keys**:

  - Copy **Publishable Key** → `NEXT_PUBLIC_CLERK_PUBLISHABLE_KEY`

  - Copy **Secret Key** → `CLERK_SECRET_KEY`

- Set up a **Webhook** (under "Webhooks") pointing to:

  `https:///api/users/webhook` (this will be your server endpoint, can be tunneled via [ngrok](https://ngrok.com/)).

  Copy the generated secret → `CLERK_WEBHOOK_SECRET`

- Redirect URLs: Keep as provided unless you modify authentication routes.



---



### 8. Neon (PostgreSQL Database)



- Sign up at [Neon](https://neon.tech/).

- Create a new **PostgreSQL project**.

- Go to **Connection Details** and copy the **Connection String**.

- Replace ``, ``, and `` with your Neon credentials.

- Append `?sslmode=require` at the end (needed for secure connections).



---



### 9. Upstash Redis (API Ratelimit)



- Sign up at [Upstash](https://upstash.com/).

- Create a **Redis database**.

- In the database dashboard:

  - Copy the **REST URL** → `UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_URL`

  - Copy the **REST Token** → `UPSTASH_REDIS_REST_TOKEN`



---



### 10. Upstash QStash (AI Workflows)



- In your [Upstash Dashboard](https://console.upstash.com/), create a **QStash project**.

- Copy the **QStash Token** → `QSTASH_TOKEN`.

- Configure your **Workflow URL** (this will be your server endpoint, can be tunneled via [ngrok](https://ngrok.com/)).

- Obtain the **Signing Keys** from the QStash dashboard:

  - Current Signing Key → `QSTASH_CURRENT_SIGNING_KEY`

  - Next Signing Key → `QSTASH_NEXT_SIGNING_KEY`



---



### 11. Mux (Video Uploads)



- Sign up at [Mux](https://mux.com/) and create a new project.

- In your **Dashboard → Settings → API Access Tokens**:

  - Create a new token with Videos (**Read & Write**) permissions.

  - Copy **Token ID** → `MUX_TOKEN_ID`

  - Copy **Token Secret** → `MUX_TOKEN_SECRET`

- Set up a **Webhook** in Mux (point to `https:///api/videos/webhook` (this will be your server endpoint, can be tunneled via [ngrok](https://ngrok.com/)).) and copy the **Webhook Signing Secret** → `MUX_WEBHOOK_SECRET`



---



### 12. UploadThing (File Uploads)



- Sign up at [UploadThing](https://uploadthing.com/).

- Create a new app.

- Copy the **App ID** → `UPLOADTHING_APP_ID`

- Copy the **API Token** → `UPLOADTHING_TOKEN`



---



### 13. OpenAI (AI Features)



- Store it in your cookies under the name specified by `OPENAI_API_KEY_COOKIE_NAME`.

- Generate both **verification secret** and **cookie name** (for cryptographic signing):



  ```bash

  openssl rand -hex 32

  ```



  Copy the output → `VERIFICATION_SECRET` and `OPENAI_API_KEY_COOKIE_NAME` separately



---



14. Install Project Dependencies using `npm install --legacy-peer-deps` or `yarn install --legacy-peer-deps` or `bun install --legacy-peer-deps`.



15. Now app is fully configured 👍 and you can start using this app using either one of `npm run dev` or `yarn dev` or `bun dev`.
