To set up akasha locally, you'll need to clone the repository and set up the following environment variables:
OPENAI_API_KEY
– your OpenAI API key (you can get one here)BLOB_READ_WRITE_TOKEN
– your Vercel Blob read/write token (currently still in beta, but feel free to sign up on this form for access)
If you've deployed this to Vercel, you can also use vc env pull
to pull the environment variables from your Vercel project.
akasha is built on the following stack:
- Next.js – framework
- Tiptap – text editor
- OpenAI - AI completions
- Vercel AI SDK – AI library
- Vercel – deployments
- TailwindCSS – styles
- Cal Sans – font
Here's how you can contribute:
- Open an issue if you believe you've encountered a bug.
- Make a pull request to add new features/make quality-of-life improvements/fix bugs.
