##   Running Blog2Buzz Locally

Excited to try out Blog2Buzz? Here's how to get it up and running on your local machine:

1. **Prerequisites:** Ensure you have Node.js and npm installed on your system. You can verify this by running `node -v` and `npm -v` in your terminal. If not installed, download them from the official Node.js website (https://nodejs.org/en).
2. **Clone the Repository:** Use Git to clone the Blog2Buzz source code repository from your preferred version control platform (e.g., GitHub).

```bash 
        https://github.com/adarshswaminath/blog2buzz
    ```

3. **Install Dependencies:** Navigate to the cloned repository directory in your terminal and run `npm install`  to install all the required dependencies listed in the `package.json` file.

```bash 
    npm install
    ```

4. **Configure Environment Variables:**

Blog2Buzz utilizes environment variables to store sensitive information like API keys. To configure these, follow these steps:

- Rename the `.env.local.example` file in your project's root directory to `.env.local` (**important: this file is not tracked by Git version control to avoid exposing sensitive keys**).
     - Add the following environment variables to the `.env.local` file, replacing the placeholders with your actual keys:

```
       NEXT_GEMINI_KEY=your_gemini_api_key
       NEXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_KEY=your_posthog_api_key
       NEXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_HOST=[https://app.posthog.com](https://app.posthog.com) (or your Posthog deployment URL)
       ```

- `NEXT_GEMINI_KEY`: Your Gemini API key for AI functionality.
       - `NEXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_KEY`: Your Posthog API key for analytics integration (if applicable).
       - `NEXT_PUBLIC_POSTHOG_HOST`: The Posthog deployment URL (if applicable)
5. **Start the Development Server:** Run `npm run dev`  to launch the development server. This will typically start the application on `http://localhost:3000` (the exact port might vary). You can then access Blog2Buzz in your web browser.
    ```bash
    npm run dev
    ```

By following these steps, you should be able to run Blog2Buzz locally and explore its features!
