Set up your environment variables: The `.env.example` file contains detailed explanations for each variable. Key requirements: 1. **Database**: We are using [Prisma Database](http://prisma.io/) (This is created over) 2. **Authentication**: Configure Better-auth OAuth providers **For Google Auth Setup:** To use Google as a social provider, create a new project in the [Google Cloud Console](https://console.cloud.google.com/). In **Google Cloud Console > Credentials > Authorized redirect URIs**, set: - **Local development**: `http://localhost:3000/api/auth/callback/google` - **Production**: `https://yourdomain.com/api/auth/callback/google` 5. Push the database schema: ```bash # Generate Prisma client and push schema pnpm db:generate pnpm db:push ``` 1.
