Hey @roche-jeethan ,

I checked out your repo, and you've done a great job!

However, I wanted to point out something important that I noticed right away. Including your virtual environment (env) in the repo isn’t recommended. It contains over 5000+ redundant files, making it impractical to load or clone.

The usual practice is to create a requirements.txt file that lists all the required packages. This way, anyone can easily download the necessary dependencies.

Here’s how you can fix this:

1. Create requirements.txt:

After setting up your environment, run the following command:

pip freeze > requirements.txt

This will generate a list of all installed packages in your environment.

2. Add your virtual environment to .gitignore:

To prevent the virtual environment folder from being included in your repository, add the following line to your .gitignore file:

/env

Make sure the name matches the folder name for your virtual environment (e.g., env, venv, or whatever it's called).

3. Push Changes:

Add and commit the .gitignore and requirements.txt files to your repo:

git add .gitignore requirements.txt
git commit -m "Exclude venv and add requirements.txt"
git push

This way, others can easily recreate the environment by running:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Remember this is incase of Python.

Thank you!
