ChatGemini provides a web-based client for Google's Gemini API, mirroring the user experience of ChatGPT 3.5. It targets users seeking a familiar interface for interacting with Gemini, with the added benefit of image recognition capabilities via the Gemini-Pro-Vision model.

How It Works

This project utilizes a React frontend for a responsive, ChatGPT-like interface. It supports multi-turn conversations, streaming responses (SSE), and allows users to upload images for analysis by Gemini-Pro-Vision. A key feature is the ability to customize the Gemini API server address, enabling users to bypass potential regional restrictions by proxying requests through their own servers (PHP, Nginx, Netlify, Cloudflare Workers).

Quick Start & Requirements

• Manual Deployment: Clone the repository, run npm install, npm run build, and deploy the build directory.
• Docker Deployment: docker pull ghcr.io/bclswl0827/chatgemini and run with docker run -d --name chatgemini --publish 8080:8080 --env REACT_APP_GEMINI_API_KEY="YOUR_KEY" ghcr.io/bclswl0827/chatgemini.
• Prerequisites: Node.js, Git, Gemini API Key. Docker for containerized deployment.
• Resources: Deployment requires a server or virtual host with Node.js or Docker support.
• Docs: Google AI Studio for API key application.
