00:00Hello guys welcome. Have you ever heard of OpenCode? OpenCode is an open source AI coding agent similar to cloud
00:07code and it provides some free models for AI coding. So today in this video we will set up OpenCode
00:14on our system. So let's start. So go to this OpenCode.ai. Here the installation method is given. So we
00:22will install it with npm.
00:24So what is npm? npm is a package manager that helps you in installing packages and it comes with Node
00:31.js. So how can we install Node.js? Open a new tab, Node.js. Go to this first link, Node
00:37.js.org, get Node.js. Click on this Windows Installer and save this and it will download Node.js. If
00:45I save this, so it will download Node.js. I will cancel this because I have already installed it. The
00:51installation is pretty simple.
00:53So open the msi file and next, next, next and it will install. So when Node.js is installed, you
00:59can come to this search and here you can type PowerShell. Now here you can, we reply npm.
01:07npm installs with Node.js. So if I use npm, happenv. So it will show me the npm version I
01:15have installed. Now I will copy this command.
01:17And now I will again come to this PowerShell. And now I will paste it right here and hit enter.
01:23So it will install OpenCode and it has installed OpenCode. So now I will type here, OpenCode, hit enter.
01:29Now here I will type power slash connect, hit enter. And we will connect to this OpenCodeZen, hit enter.
01:37So it need an API key. So for this we need Zen account, OpenCodeZen account.
01:42So for that I will come here. Click on this Zen. Now click on this login. I have already created
01:47an account with OpenCodeZen.
01:49You have to create one. But you can directly login with your Google account. I mean Gmail.
01:55So login. So it will login into my account. If I log out for you. And now if I click
02:00login.
02:01So you can directly continue with Google or GitHub. So do not click this enable billing.
02:06Come to this API keys. Create a new API key. Name this test. You can name it anything.
02:14And I will create this test. So you can see here test. I will copy this API key.
02:20And I will come here. And I will paste the API key here. Now hit enter.
02:24Now you can see here. You can use this Becpecle, DeepSeq, Minimax, Nemotron and QAN 3.6 for free.
02:32As you can see here they are free.
02:34So now here I will use this QAN 3.6. Because I haven't tested this. I have tested this other.
02:40But I haven't tested this. So I will test this today.
02:43Now I will send it a hi. Hi. How can I help you today?
02:46What you can do? Hit enter.
02:49So now you can see it has given me all its capabilities.
02:52Now how can we use this in anti-gravity or in VS Code?
02:57So very simple. I will close this. I will come here to search. I will type anti-gravity.
03:01I have already installed anti-gravity IDE. I will maximize this.
03:06From this first project. I will remove these files.
03:09And now I will open a new terminal here.
03:11I will type open code here.
03:13So now you can see open code is open here.
03:16And I can ask it anything here.
03:18So I will ask it create me a tic-tac-toe game in HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
03:27Why I am making here this app in HTML, CSS and JavaScript.
03:32I can make it in Plutter, Android with this model.
03:36So here I am creating it in HTML because I want to show you it in a browser.
03:40So hit enter.
03:41So now you can see here it is working on it.
03:43So now you can see it has created and telling me open the file in browser to play.
03:48It has created this folder tic-tac-toe.
03:50If I open this, it has this index.html.
03:53I will reveal it in a file explorer.
03:55And now if I double click on this, so I can open it.
03:58Now I will play this.
04:01So O wins.
04:02Restart game.
04:04Now if I use this.
04:06X wins.
04:07Restart game.
04:08O wins.
04:09So similarly you can create apps with this open code CLI for free.
04:14So I think this is enough for today.
