Setup & Running

It is assumed you have a Python virtual environment at the project root (e.g., .venv).

1. Navigate to the project root directory (e.g., /Volumes/SAM2/CODE/chatterbox-test).
2. Activate the existing Python virtual environment:

   source .venv/bin/activate  # On macOS/Linux
   # .\.venv\Scripts\activate  # On Windows
   

3. Install dependencies (ensure your terminal is in the project root):

   pip install -r backend/requirements.txt
   

4. Run the development server (ensure your terminal is in the project root):

   uvicorn backend.app.main:app --reload --host 0.0.0.0 --port 8000
   

The API should then be accessible at http://127.0.0.1:8000.
