NVC Foundation Training app

Companion app for participants in the NVC Foundation Training: resources, exercises and self-checks for each of the ten sessions.

First-time setup (on your computer)

You need Node.js 22 or newer (node -v to check) and git.

cd nvc-ft
npm install                     # downloads Next.js, React, Tailwind, OpenAI SDK
cp .env.example .env.local      # then put your OpenAI key in .env.local
npm run dev                     # open http://localhost:3000

The app runs without a key too — only the AI feedback in Exercises needs it.

Put it on GitHub

Create an empty repo klenggnelk/nvc-ft on github.com (no README), then:

git add -A && git commit -m "Initial setup"   # skip if already committed
git branch -M main
git remote add origin https://github.com/klenggnelk/nvc-ft.git
git push -u origin main

Deploy on Vercel

vercel.com → Add New → Project → import nvc-ft → under Environment Variables add OPENAI_API_KEY → Deploy. After that, every push to main deploys automatically.
