Goopt

Goopt is an experimental, self-run web application that simulates a search engine over procedurally generated text. It uses GPT-3 through the OpenAI API to return related results and generate the content of pages opened from those results.

Understand the project

Practical overview

When it fits

Use Goopt to explore or prototype a search interface whose results and text pages are generated on demand. Its documented use requires running the project yourself and supplying an OpenAI API key.

Who it is for

  • Developers exploring synthetic text generation in a search-style interface.
  • Prototypers interested in query-driven, generated pages rather than conventional search over existing websites.

Documented uses

  • Search a term and view related generated results.
  • Open generated text content associated with a result.
  • Set up a local prototype of a procedural-content browsing experience.
Before you choose

Requirements & limits

The README says there is no public online version. Local use requires a developer setup and the user's own OpenAI API key.

  • Goopt generates synthetic text rather than searching a documented index of existing websites.
  • The repository documents a JavaScript project with a Yarn-based local setup and an OpenAI API key.
  • The repository states that the project is licensed under MIT.

Check current requirements in the official documentation. Source-based guidance does not mean OpenViST has run or independently tested this project.

Source-based practical guide

Set up Goopt locally

Prepare the documented local app environment and start Goopt.

Before you start

  • A developer environment with Git and Yarn.
  • An OpenAI API key.

Steps

  1. Clone https://github.com/jokenox/Goopt.git and change into the Goopt directory.

  2. Create a .env.local file in the project root and add REACT_APP_OPENAI_API_KEY=YOUR_API_KEY_HERE, replacing the placeholder with your key.

  3. Run yarn install to install the project and its dependencies.

  4. Run yarn start; the README directs users to visit http://localhost:3000.

Expected outcome

The documented local setup starts the app at http://localhost:3000.

Guide limitations

  • The project is experimental and has no public online version.
  • The documented generated content is text produced with GPT-3.
