## Introduction

### 1. Intro Concept - Frontend for your AI Agent

Bubbletea is the **frontend platform for AI agents & chatbots**. Share your AI creations with the world through beautiful, instant chat interfaces. Build your bot in any language, host it anywhere, and Bubbletea provides the user interface.

- No frontend development needed
- Share bots with simple URLs
- Professional UI out of the box
- Built-in user management & history

## Quickstart

### 2. Quickstart - E2E Echobot

Get your first bot running in minutes. This complete example shows you how to build, deploy, and share a working chatbot in just 3 steps.

**🎬 Video Demonstration**

Watch this step-by-step video guide that walks you through the entire process:
[Bubbletea Quickstart Tutorial](https://www.youtube.com/embed/Op5cbkJylm8)

#### Step 1: Create an Echo Bot

First, install the Bubbletea SDK and create a simple bot that echoes messages back to users. The @bt.chatbot decorator automatically handles all the HTTP endpoint setup for you.

```python
# Install SDK with LLM support
pip install 'bubbletea-chat[llm]'

# echobot.py
import bubbletea_chat as bt

@bt.chatbot
def echo_bot(message: str):
    # Simple echo bot
    return bt.Text(f"Echo: {message}")

if __name__ == "__main__":
    # Creates /chat endpoint automatically
    bt.run_server(echo_bot, port=8000, host="0.0.0.0")
```

#### Step 2: Deploy with ngrok or Replit

Now make your bot accessible from the internet. Choose either ngrok for local development or Replit for instant cloud hosting. Both options are free and take less than a minute to set up.

**Option A: Deploy with ngrok (Local Development)**

```bash
# Install ngrok: https://ngrok.com/download
# Start your bot locally
python echobot.py

# In another terminal, expose it to internet
ngrok http 8000

# Your bot URL will be: https://abc123.ngrok-free.app
```

**Option B: Deploy on Replit (Cloud Hosting)**

Replit provides free, always-on hosting with zero configuration:

- Go to [replit.com](https://replit.com) and create a new Python repl
- Copy your bot code into main.py
- Click "Run" to start your bot
- Get instant URL: https://your-bot.username.repl.co
- Free hosting, SSL included, always online
- Click "Deploy" button and ensure deployment type is set to "Public"

#### Step 3: Register Your Bot & Access Everywhere

Finally, register your bot through the Dashboard to make it accessible to users:

- Go to [https://bubbletea.chat](https://bubbletea.chat)
- Create or select a subaccount for your bot
- Use BT Agent or the dashboard UI to register your bot

Your bot is now accessible at:
- 🌐 Web: https://bubbletea.chat/echobot
- 📱 iOS & Android: Bubbletea mobile app
