This is a Next.js project bootstrapped with create-next-app.

• Course recommendations using your JSON data files
• Optional AI-powered recommendations using OpenAI's GPT-4
• Optional integration with Supabase for vector search
• Interactive course browsing with filtering
• Academic schedule planning
• Real-time recommendations based on career path
• Works with or without external API keys

The application works with or without environment variables. For enhanced AI features, create a .env.local file in the root directory with the following variables:

# OpenAI API Key for enhanced AI recommendations (optional)
OPENAI_API_KEY=your_openai_api_key_here

# Supabase Configuration for vector search (optional)
NEXT_PUBLIC_SUPABASE_URL=your_supabase_url_here
SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY=your_supabase_service_role_key_here

# O*NET API for real-time career data (optional)
ONET_API_KEY=your_onet_api_key_here

Note: Without these environment variables, the app will use basic course recommendations from the JSON data files.

For comprehensive career data, you can integrate the O*NET API:

1. Get API Access: Visit O*NET Center and register for API access
2. Add API Key: Add ONET_API_KEY to your .env.local file
3. Test Integration: The system will automatically use O*NET data when available

See ONET_SETUP.md for detailed integration instructions.

First, install dependencies:

npm install

Then, run the development server:

npm run dev
# or
yarn dev
# or
pnpm dev
# or
bun dev

Open http://localhost:3002 with your browser to see the result.

You can start editing the page by modifying app/page.tsx. The page auto-updates as you edit the file.

This project uses next/font to automatically optimize and load Geist, a new font family for Vercel.
