This project provides a web application that summarizes articles using OpenAI's models. It's designed for developers looking to learn React, TypeScript, and Redux Toolkit, offering a practical example of integrating AI summarization into a user-friendly interface.

How It Works

The application leverages React.js with TypeScript for a modern frontend architecture. State management is handled by Redux Toolkit, specifically utilizing RTK Query for efficient, conditional API requests to an external summarization service. The UI is styled with Tailwind CSS, and local storage is used for saving summarization history.
