Rintu Chowdory — ChatGPT Clone Portfolio

This repository contains a Next.js ChatGPT-style portfolio assistant built for GitHub Pages. It is a recruiter-friendly project that demonstrates chat UI design, React state management, prompt workflows, and safe deployment practices.

Features

• ChatGPT-style messaging interface for portfolio and CV prompts.
• Starter prompts for project descriptions, CRM planning, and GitHub README improvements.
• Static GitHub Pages deployment with no secrets committed to the repository.
• OpenAI-ready documentation for adding a real server-side API integration later.

Local development

npm install
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000.

Production build

npm run build

Because next.config.js uses output: 'export', static files are generated in out/.

OpenAI API key setup

This static GitHub Pages version runs in demo mode. Do not put an OpenAI API key in browser code, Git history, or public repository settings.

To add real AI responses later:

1. Create an API key from the OpenAI dashboard.
2. Store it as a private environment variable named OPENAI_API_KEY on a server-side host such as Vercel, Render, Fly.io, or your own backend.
3. Add a private API endpoint that calls the OpenAI Responses API from the server.
4. Call your own endpoint from the React UI.

Example environment variable name:

OPENAI_API_KEY=your_private_key_here

GitHub Pages deployment

Deployment is automated via .github/workflows/github-pages.yml.

1. Push to main.
2. In GitHub repo settings, go to Pages.
3. Set Source to GitHub Actions.
4. Wait for the Deploy GitHub Pages workflow to finish.
