Deployment

Follow these steps to set up the taxGPT-website project on your local machine.

Creating a KV Database Instance

Follow the steps outlined in the quick start guide provided by Vercel. This guide will assist you in creating and configuring your KV database instance on Vercel, enabling your application to interact with it.

Remember to update your environment variables (KV_URL, KV_REST_API_URL, KV_REST_API_TOKEN, KV_REST_API_READ_ONLY_TOKEN) in the .env file with the appropriate credentials provided during the KV database setup.

Running locally

You will need to use the environment variables defined in .env.example to run:

1. Install Vercel CLI: npm i -g vercel
2. Link local instance with Vercel and GitHub accounts (creates .vercel directory): vercel link
3. Download your environment variables: vercel env pull

pnpm install
pnpm dev

Your app template should now be running on localhost:3000.

Deploying to production

To deploy your project to production using pnpm and Vercel, follow these steps:

1. Ensure you have the Vercel CLI installed globally:

   pnpm add -g vercel
   

2. If you haven't already, link your project to Vercel:

   vercel link
   

3. Deploy to production:

   vercel --prod
   

This command will build your project and deploy it to the Vercel platform. Vercel will automatically detect that you're using Next.js and apply the appropriate build settings.

Note: Ensure you have the correct environment variables set in your .env file before deploying to production.
