Overview
This codelab guides you through building an Express API that accepts a list of moods and returns a generated quote using Google’s Gemini AI. You will start by setting up a Node.js project, installing the required dependencies, and configuring your API key. Then, you'll write an Express server that processes user input, sends a request to Gemini AI, and returns a dynamically generated quote.
We'll break down the code into manageable sections, explaining each part in detail. You'll also learn how to test your API using Postman and explore potential improvements, such as adding authentication, caching, and expanding functionality. By the end of this codelab, you’ll have a functional and extensible quote-generation API that can be integrated into larger applications.
