Setup Instructions

Backend Requirements

• Node.js (v18+)
• Python 3.9+
• MongoDB

1. Navigate to the backend directory and install dependencies:

cd backend
npm install
pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Create a .env file in the backend/ folder:

MONGO_URI=your_mongo_connection_string
JWT_SECRET=your_jwt_secret_key
GEMINI_API_KEY=your_google_gemini_api_key
PORT=3000

3. Start the server:

node server.js

Frontend

Since the Node.js backend serves the frontend statically, you do not need a separate development server. Just start the backend and visit http://localhost:3000 in your browser.

Tech Stack

• Frontend: Vanilla JavaScript, HTML, CSS
• Backend: Node.js (Express), Python (BeautifulSoup, PyMuPDF, Spacy)
• Database: MongoDB
• AI Models: Google Gemini API
