FoldedNotes

Platform that people can call and leave anonymous message of hope, tips and any other struggles people went through.

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

• Side notes panel: Allow users to write notes in a side panel and post them to the feed. (Implemented: "Write a note" section on the home page posts to the same notes feed via POST /api/notes.)

npm install
npm run dev

Open http://localhost:3000.

To use Submit to process (send the recording to ElevenLabs for transcription):

1. Get an API key

   • Sign up at ElevenLabs.
   • Go to API keys and create a key.

2. Add the key locally

   • Copy .env.example to .env.local:

     cp .env.example .env.local

   • Edit .env.local and set:

     ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=your_actual_key_here
     

3. Restart the dev server so it picks up the new env.

4. Flow in the app

   • Record a message → Stop → Submit to process.
   • The app sends the audio to ElevenLabs Speech-to-Text (Scribe v2) and shows the transcript (and language) when done.

The API route is POST /api/transcribe. It expects JSON { "audioBase64": "<base64>", "contentType": "audio/webm" } and returns { "text", "language_code", "words?" }. Do not commit .env.local or your API key.

First, run the development server:

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

Open http://localhost:3000 with your browser to see the result.

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

API routes can be accessed on http://localhost:3000/api/hello. This endpoint can be edited in pages/api/hello.ts.

The pages/api directory is mapped to /api/*. Files in this directory are treated as API routes instead of React pages.

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