About The Project

Video walkthrough

Welcome to the AI Hackathon Starter Kit! This project has been created to make AI accessible and easy for everyone. Whether you are a beginner with no prior experience or an experienced developer, this starter kit is designed to help you incorporate AI into your apps quickly and easily.

The AI Hackathon Starter Kit has many features that make it an excellent tool for anyone looking to work with AI.

The tool showcases how to work with the following use cases:

  • Transcription (Speech to Text)
  • Text Analytics
    • Sentiment Analysis
    • Entity Recognition
    • Special Entity Recognition for Healthcare
    • Pii Recognition
  • Speak (Text to Speech)
  • Natural Language Generation

Web Application

This kit removes the complexity of working with AI and allows you to focus on building your app. We have added placeholders for you to add your code and get started quickly. Search for the text "NOTE TO DEVELOPER: YOUR_MAGIC_GOES_HERE" to find the placeholders.

var timeoutId = setTimeout(() => {
    /**
     * ***************************************
     * NOTE TO DEVELOPER: YOUR_MAGIC_GOES_HERE
     * ***************************************
     * This is where you would do interesting things 
     * with the words that were spoken.
     */
    setWordsSpoken((prev:string) => {
        return prev + " " + event.privText;
    });
}, wordOffset);

Prepare your environment

A sample environment file has been provided for you to use. You will need to update the values in the file with your own values.

  1. Open up a text editor and get a copy of the evnironment file from: github.com/rohit-lakhanpal/ai-hackathon-starter-kit/blob/main/src/api/.env-sample

  2. Update the values in the .env file with your own values.

    PORT=8730    
    APP_NAME="YOUR_APP_NAME"
    APP_DESCRIPTION="YOUR_APP_DESCRIPTION"
    APP_REPOSITORY_OPTIONAL="YOUR_APP_REPOSITORY_URL (Optional. If you remove this line, it defaults to this repository's url.)"
    APP_LOGO_OPTIONAL="YOUR_APP_LOGO_URL (Optional. If you can remove this line, it defaults to the Microsoft logo.)"
    APP_FAVICON_OPTIONAL="YOUR_APP_FAVICON_URL (Optional. You can remove this line, it defaults to the Microsoft favicon.)"
    LANGUAGE_KEY="YOUR_AZURE_LANGUAGE_KEY"
    LANGUAGE_REGION="[e.g. eastus]"
    LANGUAGE_ENDPOINT_URL="[e.g. https://your-deployment-name.cognitiveservices.azure.com/]"
    SPEECH_KEY="YOUR_AZURE_SPEECH_KEY"
    SPEECH_REGION="YOUR_AZURE_SPEECH_REGION"
    SPEECH_ENDPOINT_URL_OPTIONAL="YOUR_AZURE_SPEECH_ENDPOINT_URL (Optional. You can remove this line if you don't have a custom speech endpoint url.)"
    OPENAI_TYPE="Must be either openai or azure"
    OPENAI_KEY="YOUR_OPENAI_KEY"
    OPENAI_AZURE_KEY="YOUR_OPENAI_AZURE_KEY"
    OPENAI_AZURE_BASE_URL="[e.g. https://[your-deployment-name].openai.azure.com/]"
    OPENAI_AZURE_API_VERSION_OPTIONAL="2023-03-15-preview"
    OPENAI_AZURE_MODELS_TEXT="YOUR_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME_FOR_text-davinci-003"
    OPENAI_AZURE_MODELS_CHAT="YOUR_MODEL_DEPLOYMENT_NAME_FOR_gpt-35-turbo_or_GPT-4"

Installation

  1. Clone the repo

    git clone https://github.com/rohit-lakhanpal/ai-hackathon-starter-kit.git
  2. Navigate to the src folder

    cd ai-hackathon-starter-kit/src

    Here you will notice two folders:

    • api: This is the backend api that will be used to call cloud services.
    • ui: This is the frontend web application that will be used to interact with the user.

    Let's start with the api first.

API

  1. Navigate to the api project folder
    cd ai-hackathon-starter-kit/src/api    
  2. Create a .env file and update the values with your own values from the step above.
    cp .env-sample .env
  3. Install NPM packages
    npm install
  4. Run the api
     npm start

Your APIs should now be running on at localhost:8730. Test the api by navigating to http://localhost:8730/api/status. You should see the following response:

{
  "status":"200OK"
}

API Application

UI

  1. Navigate to the web project folder and npm install
    cd ai-hackathon-starter-kit/src/ui    
  2. Create a .env file using the .env-sample as a base. In the UI project, the only value you need to update is the PORT value (in case you want to run it on a port other than 8700).
    cp .env-sample .env
  3. Install NPM packages
    npm install
  4. Start the web application
     npm start

Your web application should now be running on at localhost:8700. Test the web application by navigating to http://localhost:8700.

Note: If you changed the port in the .env file, please use that port instead of 8700.

You should see the following response:
