Pivot for the Hack Club Sidequest Challenger. An astronomy/physics study tool that utilizes real NASA data (APOD endpoint) to generate interactive quizzes and flashcards using Google Gemini AI. The perfect tool for studying "between lectures"!

Features

• astrolab apod: Shows the "Astronomy Picture of the Day" with a detailed explanation.
• astrolab quiz: Generates an interactive 5-question quiz based on the daily APOD using AI. Includes a Deep Dive mode to learn from your mistakes!

💡 Quick Start (For Reviewers)

AstroLab is now published on PyPI for a frictionless testing experience!

1. Install the package globally via pip:

pip install astrolab-cli

2. [OPTIONAL] To use the fully dynamic AI generation, configure your credentials by creating a .env file in your working directory:

NASA_API_KEY=your_key_here
GEMINI_API_KEY=your_key_here

Note: If you don't configure an .env, the system will use a DEMO_KEY for NASA and safely fallback to our Smart Demo Mode for Gemini, pulling rich pre-generated responses from an internal cache.

3. Explore space with our beautiful interactive menu by running:

astrolab
