## 📖 About 

In-terminal ChatGPT powered by Textual. Take note that this is just an MVP + I'm not a CSS ninja.

## 💾 Installation 

Create a new virtual environment (assuming you already have Python installed e.g. via `pyenv`)

```bash

python -m venv venv

```

Activate it

```bash

source ./venv/bin/activate

```

Install requirements for local setup

```bash

pip install -r ./requirements/dev.txt

```

Get your OpenAI API key ([link](https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys)) and set it as an environment variable

```bash

export OPENAI_KEY=

```

You now be able to run the project

```bash

make run

```
