The capybara is using a computer with split screen made of origami, split keyboard and is wearing origami sunglasses with very different split reflections. Split halves are very contrasting. Close up photography, bokeh, white background.

-The development app will be running on `http://localhost:3000`. Development builds have the advantage of not requiring
-a build step, but can be slower than production builds. Also, development builds won't have timeout on edge functions.
+---

-## 🌐 Deploy manually
-
-The _production_ build of the application is optimized for performance and is performed by the `npm run build` command,
-after installing the required dependencies.
-
-```bash
-# .. repeat the steps above up to `npm install`, then:
-npm run build
-next start --port 3000
-```
-
-The app will be running on the specified port, e.g. `http://localhost:3000`.
-
-Want to deploy with username/password? See the [Authentication](docs/deploy-authentication.md) guide.
-
-## 🐳 Deploy with Docker
-

+
+<br/>
+
+## Code Alterations
+
+Start by creating a fork of the [big-AGI repository](https://github.com/enricoros/big-AGI) on GitHub for a personal development space.
+Understand the Architecture: big-AGI uses Next.js, React for the front end, and Node.js (Next.js edge functions) for the back end.
+
+### Add Authentication
+
+This necessitates a code change (file renaming) before build initiation, detailed in [deploy-authentication.md](deploy-authentication.md).
+
+### Increase Vercel Functions Timeout
+
+For long-running operations, Vercel allows paid deployments to increase the timeout on Functions.
+Note that this applies to old-style Vercel Functions (based on Node.js) and not the new Edge Functions.
+
+At time of writing, big-AGI has only 2 operations that run on Node.js Functions:
+browsing (fetching web pages) and sharing. They both can exceed 10 seconds, especially
+when fetching large pages or waiting for websites to be completed.
+
+We provide `vercel_PRODUCTION.json` to raise the duration to 25 seconds (from a default of 10), to use it,
+make sure to rename it to `vercel.json` before build.
+
+From the Vercel Project > Settings > General > Build & Development Settings,
+you can for instance set the build command to:
+
+```bash
+mv vercel_PRODUCTION.json vercel.json; next build
+```
+
+### Change the Personas
+
+Edit the `src/data.ts` file to customize personas. This file houses the default personas. You can add, remove, or modify these to meet your project's needs.
+
+- [ ] Modify `src/data.ts` to alter default personas
+
+### Change the UI
+
+Adapt the UI to match your project's aesthetic, incorporate new features, or exclude unnecessary ones.
+
+- [ ] Adjust `src/common/app.theme.ts` for theme changes: colors, spacing, button appearance, animations, etc
+- [ ] Modify `src/common/app.config.tsx` to alter the application's name
+- [ ] Update `src/common/app.nav.tsx` to revise the navigation bar
+
+## Testing & Deployment
+
+Test your application thoroughly using local development (refer to README.md for local build instructions). Deploy using your preferred hosting service. big-AGI supports deployment on platforms like Vercel, Docker, or any Node.js-compatible service, especially those supporting NextJS's "Edge Runtime."

+# big-AGI Analytics
+
+The open-source big-AGI project provides support for the following analytics services:
+
+- **Vercel Analytics**: automatic when deployed to Vercel
+- **Google Analytics 4**: manual setup required
+
+The following is a quick overview of the Analytics options for the deployers of this open-source project.
+big-AGI is deployed to many large-scale and enterprise though various ways (custom builds, Docker, Vercel, Cloudflare, etc.),
+and this guide is for its customization.
+
+## Service Configuration
+
+### Vercel Analytics
+
+- Why: understand coarse traction, and identify deployment issues - all without tracking individual users
+- What: top pages, top referrers, country of origin, operating system, browser, and page speed metrics
+
+Vercel Analytics and Speed Insights are local API endpoints deployed to your domain, so everything stays within your
+domain. Furthermore, the Vercel Analytics service is privacy-friendly, and does not track individual users.
+
+This service is avaialble to system administrators when deploying to Vercel. It is automatically enabled when deploying to Vercel.
+The code that activates Vercel Analytics is located in the `src/pages/_app.tsx` file:
+
+```tsx
+const MyApp = ({ Component, emotionCache, pageProps }: MyAppProps) => <>
+  ...
+  {isVercelFromFrontend && <VercelAnalytics debug={false} />}
+  {isVercelFromFrontend && <VercelSpeedInsights debug={false} sampleRate={1 / 2} />}
+  ...
+</>;
+```
+
+When big-AGI is served on Vercel hosts, the ```process.env.NEXT_PUBLIC_VERCEL_URL``` environment variable is trueish, and
+analytics will be sent by default to the Vercel Analytics service which is deployed by Vercel IF configured from the
+Vercel project dashboard.
+
+In summary: to turn it on: activate the `Analytics` service in the Vercel project dashboard.
+
+### Google Analytics 4
+
+- Why: user engagement and retention, performance insights, personalization, content optimization
+- What: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/11593727
+
+Google Analytics 4 (GA4) is a powerful tool for understanding user behavior and engagement.
+This can help optimize big-AGI, understanding which features are needed/users and which aren't.
+
+To enable Google Analytics 4, you need to set the `NEXT_PUBLIC_GA4_MEASUREMENT_ID` environment variable
+before starting the local build or the docker build (i.e. at build time), at which point the
+server/container will be able to report analytics to your Google Analytics 4 property.
+
+As of Feb 27, 2024, this feature is in development.

- **Highly Recommended:** More than a database, it's a data platform. MongoDB Atlas is a robust cloud-based platform that offers scalability, security, and a suite of developer tools. No need for a separate vector database, you can query your vector embeddings right within your operational database! 
- **Additional Features:** MongoDB Atlas is packed with unique features designed to streamline the development process such as: Atlas App Services, Atlas search (with vector search), Atlas charts, Data Federation, and more.

+# Installation Guide
+
+Welcome to the big-AGI Installation Guide - Whether you're a developer
+eager to explore, a system integrator, or an enterprise looking for a
+white-label solution, this comprehensive guide ensures a smooth setup
+process for your own instance of big-AGI and related products.
+
+**Try big-AGI** - You don't need to install anything if you want to play with big-AGI
+and have your API keys to various model services. You can access our free instance on [big-AGI.com](https://big-agi.com).
+The free instance runs the latest `main-stable` branch from this repository.
+
+## 🧩 Build-your-own
+
+If you want to change the code, have a deeper configuration,
+add your own models, or run your own instance, follow the steps below.
+
+### Local Development
+
+**Prerequisites:**
+
+- Node.js and npm installed on your machine.
+
+**Steps:**
+
+1. Clone the big-AGI repository:
+   ```bash
+   git clone https://github.com/enricoros/big-AGI.git
+   cd big-AGI
+   ```
+2. Install dependencies:
+   ```bash
+   npm install
+   ```
+3. Run the development server:
+   ```bash
+   npm run dev
+   ```
+   Your big-AGI instance is now running at `http://localhost:3000`.
+
+### Local Production build
+
+The production build is optimized for performance and follows
+the same steps 1 and 2 as for [local development](#local-development).
+
+3. Build the production version:
+   ```bash
+   # .. repeat the steps above up to `npm install`, then:
+   npm run build
+   ```
+4. Start the production server (`npx` may be optional):
+   ```bash
+   npx next start --port 3000
+   ```
+   Your big-AGI production instance is on `http://localhost:3000`.
+
+### Advanced Customization

+### Deploy on Cloudflare
+
+Deploy on Cloudflare's global network by installing big-AGI on
+Cloudflare Pages. Check out the [Cloudflare Installation Guide](deploy-cloudflare.md)
+for step-by-step instructions.
+
+### Docker Deployments
+
+Containerize your big-AGI installation using Docker for portability and scalability.
+Our [Docker Deployment Guide](deploy-docker.md) will walk you through the process,
+or follow the steps below for a quick start.
+
+1. (optional) Build the Docker image - if you do not want to use the [pre-built Docker images](https://github.com/enricoros/big-AGI/pkgs/container/big-agi):
+   ```bash
+   docker build -t big-agi .
+   ```
+2. Run the Docker container with either:
+   ```bash
+   # 2A. if you built the image yourself:
+   docker run -d -p 3000:3000 big-agi
+
+   # 2B. or use the pre-built image:
+   docker run -d -p 3000:3000 ghcr.io/enricoros/big-agi
+
+   # 2C. or use docker-compose:
+   docker-compose up
+   ```
+   Access your big-AGI instance at `http://localhost:3000`.
+
+### Midori AI Subsystem for Docker Deployment
+
+Follow the instructions found on [Midori AI Subsystem Site](https://io.midori-ai.xyz/subsystem/manager/)
+for your host OS. After completing the setup process, install the Big-AGI docker backend to the Midori AI Subsystem.
