+Additionally, install either uv or poetry to manage dependencies.

-## How To Use It
-
-You can **just fork or clone** this repository and use it as is.
-
-โจ It just works. โจ
-
-### How to Use a Private Repository
-
-If you want to have a private repository, GitHub won't allow you to simply fork it as it doesn't allow changing the visibility of forks.
-
-But you can do the following:
-
-- Create a new GitHub repo, for example `my-full-stack`.
-- Clone this repository manually, set the name with the name of the project you want to use, for example `my-full-stack`:
-
-```bash
-git clone git@github.com:fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template.git my-full-stack
-```
-
-- Enter into the new directory:
+Clone the repository:
```bash
-cd my-full-stack
+git clone https://github.com/ProjectTech4DevAI/ai-platform.git
```
-- Set the new origin to your new repository, copy it from the GitHub interface, for example:
+### Environment Variables
-```bash
-git remote set-url origin git@github.com:octocat/my-full-stack.git
-```
+Create a `.env` file in the root folder with the following content:
-- Add this repo as another "remote" to allow you to get updates later:
+```ini
+PROJECT_NAME=ai-platform
-```bash
-git remote add upstream git@github.com:fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template.git
-```
+# Database Configuration
+POSTGRES_USER=postgres_user
+POSTGRES_PASSWORD=postgres_password
+POSTGRES_DB=ai_database
+POSTGRES_PORT=5432
+POSTGRES_SERVER=localhost
-- Push the code to your new repository:
+# API Keys
+OPENAI_API_KEY="change if needed"
-```bash
-git push -u origin master
+# Security & Auth
+ENVIRONMENT=local
+SECRET_KEY=$(openssl rand -hex 32)
+FIRST_SUPERUSER=admin@example.com
+FIRST_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD=admin@12345
```
-### Update From the Original Template
-
-After cloning the repository, and after doing changes, you might want to get the latest changes from this original template.
-
-- Make sure you added the original repository as a remote, you can check it with:
+To generate a secure `SECRET_KEY`, run:
```bash
-git remote -v
-
-origin git@github.com:octocat/my-full-stack.git (fetch)
-origin git@github.com:octocat/my-full-stack.git (push)
-upstream git@github.com:fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template.git (fetch)
-upstream git@github.com:fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template.git (push)
+openssl rand -hex 32
```
-- Pull the latest changes without merging:
+### Virtual Environment Setup
+Enter the backend directory
```bash
-git pull --no-commit upstream master
+cd ai-platform/backend
```
-This will download the latest changes from this template without committing them, that way you can check everything is right before committing.
-
-- If there are conflicts, solve them in your editor.
-
-- Once you are done, commit the changes:
+Ensure you are using Python 3.13.2 or higher. Set up a virtual environment and install dependencies:
```bash
-git merge --continue
-```
-
-### Configure
-
-You can then update configs in the `.env` files to customize your configurations.
-
-Before deploying it, make sure you change at least the values for:
-
-- `SECRET_KEY`
-- `FIRST_SUPERUSER_PASSWORD`
-- `POSTGRES_PASSWORD`
-
-You can (and should) pass these as environment variables from secrets.
-
-Read the [deployment.md](./deployment.md) docs for more details.
-
-### Generate Secret Keys
-
-Some environment variables in the `.env` file have a default value of `changethis`.
+uv sync # If using uv
+# OR
+poetry install # If using Poetry
-You have to change them with a secret key, to generate secret keys you can run the following command:
-
-```bash
-python -c "import secrets; print(secrets.token_urlsafe(32))"
+source .venv/bin/activate # Activate the .venv
```
-Copy the content and use that as password / secret key. And run that again to generate another secure key.
-
-## How To Use It - Alternative With Copier
-
-This repository also supports generating a new project using [Copier](https://copier.readthedocs.io).
+### Database Migrations
-It will copy all the files, ask you configuration questions, and update the `.env` files with your answers.
+For database migrations, refer to the [backend migration guide](https://github.com/ProjectTech4DevAI/ai-platform/blob/main/backend/README.md#migrations).
-### Install Copier
+If you don't want to use migrations at all, uncomment the lines in the file at `./backend/app/core/db.py` that end in:
-You can install Copier with:
-
-```bash
-pip install copier
+```python
+from sqlmodel import SQLModel
+SQLModel.metadata.create_all(engine)
```
-Or better, if you have [`pipx`](https://pipx.pypa.io/), you can run it with:
+Then run:
```bash
-pipx install copier
+python app/initial_data.py
```
-**Note**: If you have `pipx`, installing copier is optional, you could run it directly.
-
-### Generate a Project With Copier
-
-Decide a name for your new project's directory, you will use it below. For example, `my-awesome-project`.
+### Running the Backend
-Go to the directory that will be the parent of your project, and run the command with your project's name:
+Start the backend server using Uvicorn:
```bash
-copier copy https://github.com/fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template my-awesome-project --trust
+uvicorn app.main:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000 --reload
```
-If you have `pipx` and you didn't install `copier`, you can run it directly:
+Once running, you can access the API documentation:
```bash
-pipx run copier copy https://github.com/fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template my-awesome-project --trust
+http://localhost:8000/docs
```
-**Note** the `--trust` option is necessary to be able to execute a [post-creation script](https://github.com/fastapi/full-stack-fastapi-template/blob/master/.copier/update_dotenv.py) that updates your `.env` files.
-
-### Input Variables
-
-Copier will ask you for some data, you might want to have at hand before generating the project.
-
-But don't worry, you can just update any of that in the `.env` files afterwards.
-
-The input variables, with their default values (some auto generated) are:
-
-- `project_name`: (default: `"FastAPI Project"`) The name of the project, shown to API users (in .env).
-- `stack_name`: (default: `"fastapi-project"`) The name of the stack used for Docker Compose labels and project name (no spaces, no periods) (in .env).
-- `secret_key`: (default: `"changethis"`) The secret key for the project, used for security, stored in .env, you can generate one with the method above.
-- `first_superuser`: (default: `"admin@example.com"`) The email of the first superuser (in .env).
-- `first_superuser_password`: (default: `"changethis"`) The password of the first superuser (in .env).
-- `smtp_host`: (default: "") The SMTP server host to send emails, you can set it later in .env.
-- `smtp_user`: (default: "") The SMTP server user to send emails, you can set it later in .env.
-- `smtp_password`: (default: "") The SMTP server password to send emails, you can set it later in .env.
-- `emails_from_email`: (default: `"info@example.com"`) The email account to send emails from, you can set it later in .env.
-- `postgres_password`: (default: `"changethis"`) The password for the PostgreSQL database, stored in .env, you can generate one with the method above.
-- `sentry_dsn`: (default: "") The DSN for Sentry, if you are using it, you can set it later in .env.
