🚀 Installation Methods

Method 1: Automated (Recommended)

Windows: Double-click setup_jarvis.bat Linux/macOS: chmod +x setup.sh && ./setup.sh

Method 2: Manual

See SETUP_COMMANDS.md for step-by-step

What Gets Installed

  • Python virtual environment (isolated)
  • 6 Python packages (slint, vosk, sounddevice, pyttsx3, requests, pyyaml)
  • Desktop shortcut (Windows)
  • All configuration files

🎯 Next Steps (What To Do Now)

Step 1: Clean Up (5 minutes)

Remove temporary/duplicate files:

# Remove these files:
- tmp_inspect.py (temporary debugging)
- slint_ui_new.py (merged into slint_ui.py)

# Remove these directories (will be recreated on install):
- .venv/ or venv/
- __pycache__/
- logs/ (optional - can keep for logs)

Step 2: Test Everything (15 minutes)

Before uploading, verify the setup works:

Windows:

REM Delete old venv
rmdir /s /q .venv

REM Run setup
setup_jarvis.bat

REM Should see:
REM  ✓ Virtual environment created
REM  ✓ Packages installed
REM  ✓ Installation Complete!

Linux/macOS:

# Delete old venv
rm -rf venv

# Run setup
chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh

# Should see:
# ✓ Virtual environment created
# ✓ All dependencies installed successfully
# Installation Complete!

Step 3: Create GitHub Repository (10 minutes)

See GITHUB_UPLOAD_GUIDE.md for detailed steps, or:

  1. Go to https://github.com/new
  2. Name: jarvis
  3. Description: "Cross-platform local AI assistant with voice recognition and modern UI"
  4. Select: Public
  5. Create repository

Step 4: Upload to GitHub (5 minutes)

cd jarvis_app

# Initialize git
git init
git add .
git commit -m "Initial commit: Production-ready Jarvis AI assistant v1.0.0"

# Add remote
git remote add origin https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/jarvis.git

# Push to GitHub
git push -u origin main

Step 5: Finalize on GitHub (10 minutes)

  1. Add topics: ai-assistant, voice-recognition, local-ai, privacy, cross-platform
  2. Add GitHub release (tag v1.0.0)
  3. Enable Discussions for community
  4. Consider adding GitHub Actions for CI/CD

Total time to GitHub: ~45 minutes
