3 months ago Update: Back end work is complete. Front end work is in progress.
New endpoints:
- GET Conversations
- GET Conversation
- POST New Conversation
- POST Continue Conversation
- DELETE Specific Conversation
- PATCH Update Conversation Title
I am currently working on the front end changes. I plan to create a conversation list in the Chat component. First I plan to add a toggle button to hide/show the conversations log.
The conversation log will have a "New Conversation" button and a list of all the conversations below. Clicking on a conversation title will set the active chat conversation to the message history of that conversation.

Database Schema Updates
Create a new table to store chat messages Fields should include:
User ID (foreign key to User model) Conversation ID Message content Timestamp Role (user/assistant)
