Airbnb Review Generator

This repository contains a script for generating polite and professional reviews for Airbnb guests using OpenAI's GPT. It supports both command-line and web-based interfaces, with the web interface designed to be hosted via Docker.

See a live demo of the web interface here.

Features

• CLI Interface: A simple script that prompts the user for details and generates a review.
• Web Interface: A user-friendly web application for generating reviews, which can be run locally or hosted using Docker.
