This project provides an AI-powered cover generator for creating custom visuals. It targets users looking to easily generate unique cover images, potentially for social media, blogs, or personal projects, leveraging AI for creative output.

How It Works

The system utilizes Next.js for full-stack development, integrating various services for its functionality. Clerk handles user authentication, AWS S3 is used for image storage, and Stripe manages payment processing. Node-postgres is employed for data operations, with Tailwind CSS used for frontend styling.

Quick Start & Requirements
