Navigate event listings using natural language. This tool lets you ask questions about event data (from Google Sheets, CSV, or Excel) in plain English and get instant results.

• Connect to Google Sheets via URL.
• Upload CSV, XLS, or XLSX files.
• Ask natural language questions about your data.
• View results in an easy-to-read table.
• Export results to CSV (Coming soon!).
• Simple, clean interface.

• Frontend: React, TypeScript, Vite, CSS
• Core Logic: (Potentially add backend language/framework if applicable, e.g., Python/Flask/FastAPI)
• AI/LLM: (Specify the model or service used for NLQ processing, e.g., OpenAI API)
• Libraries: papaparse, xlsx, lucide-react

1. Clone the repository:

   git clone https://github.com/IdeaFlowCo/EventNavigator.git
   cd EventNavigator

2. Set up Frontend:

   cd frontend
   npm install

3. Environment Variables:

   • Navigate to the frontend directory.
   • Copy the example environment file: cp .env.example .env
   • Edit the .env file and add any necessary API keys or configuration (e.g., VITE_OPENAI_API_KEY=your_api_key_here if using OpenAI).

4. Run the Frontend Development Server:

   npm run dev

   The application should now be running, typically at http://localhost:5173.

1. Provide Event Data: Either paste a Google Sheet URL (ensure it's publicly accessible or you have permission) containing event listings or upload a CSV/Excel file.
2. Ask a Question: Type your question about the events in the input box (e.g., "show me all sound camps near 9:00 & Esplanade", "what events are happening on Tuesday night?", "find workshops related to sustainability").
3. Get Results: Click "Go". BRC Navigator will process the event data and your question, displaying the relevant results in a table below.
