This project provides a minimal, locally hosted web interface for interacting with OpenAI's ChatGPT API, designed for users who want a straightforward way to access the model without complex setup. It allows for quick experimentation and integration of ChatGPT's capabilities into a personal environment.

How It Works

The project utilizes a simple Python Flask web server (server.py) to handle user requests. It reads an OpenAI API key from a .env file and forwards user prompts to the ChatGPT API. The responses are then displayed back to the user through the web interface. This approach prioritizes simplicity and minimal dependencies for rapid deployment.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Primary install / run command: pip install -r requirements.txt followed by python server.py.
• Non-default prerequisites and dependencies: OpenAI API key, Python 3.x.
• Links to official quick-start, docs, demo, or other relevant pages: None provided.

Highlighted Details

• Achieves local hosting of ChatGPT functionality.
• Requires less than 100 lines of code.
• Developed using GPT-4.

Maintenance & Community

• No information on contributors, sponsorships, or community channels is provided.

Licensing & Compatibility

• No license is specified in the README.
• Compatibility for commercial use or closed-source linking is undetermined.

Limitations & Caveats

This project is an unofficial implementation and is not associated with OpenAI. It relies entirely on the availability and terms of service of the OpenAI API, and the README does not specify any error handling or advanced features.
