💡 AI App Starter Prompt

Use this prompt to build a project with ai4ce-helpers
Create a mini-application named 'AI4CE Weather Companion' that integrates the 'ai4ce-helpers' package to provide weather forecasts tailored to users' locations using AI4CE backend services. This app will fetch real-time weather data from AI4CE, process it through their advanced AI models for more accurate predictions, and present it in an intuitive way to the user.

The application should include the following features:
1. User Authentication: Allow users to sign up and log in securely.
2. Location Detection: Automatically detect the user's location or allow them to manually input a location.
3. Real-Time Weather Data: Fetch current weather conditions including temperature, humidity, wind speed, and UV index.
4. Forecast Prediction: Use AI4CE's AI models to predict weather conditions for the next 7 days.
5. Personalized Alerts: Send notifications based on user preferences (e.g., high UV index, heavy rain).
6. Interactive Dashboard: Display weather data in a visually appealing dashboard format.
7. Historical Data Review: Provide access to historical weather data for the past month.

Utilize the 'ai4ce-helpers' package as follows:
- For user authentication, use the package's functions to securely manage user data and interactions with the AI4CE backend.
- To detect and process location data, leverage the package's location handling capabilities.
- Fetch real-time weather data and forecast predictions by utilizing the package's functions designed to communicate with the AI4CE backend.
- Implement personalized alerts by integrating the package's alert management system with user preferences.
- For the interactive dashboard, utilize the visualization tools provided by 'ai4ce-helpers' to create an engaging interface.
- Access historical weather data using the package's data retrieval functions.
