Grok Notes

Grok Notes is an advanced, AI-powered notebook application built with React, TypeScript, and Node.js. It provides a collaborative, offline-capable environment for coding, data analysis, and machine learning, integrated with Grok AI for assistance.

Quick Start (Auto-Deploy Script)

Use the auto-deploy script for easy setup, testing, and deployment:

# Full setup and start
./auto-deploy.sh all

# Individual commands
./auto-deploy.sh setup    # Check deps, setup env, install
./auto-deploy.sh test     # Run tests
./auto-deploy.sh start    # Start servers
./auto-deploy.sh stop     # Stop servers
./auto-deploy.sh deploy   # Deploy to cloud + Cloudflare notes

Edit .env files with your API keys before deploying.
