# Perplexity Hello World ## Overview Minimal working example demonstrating core Perplexity functionality. ## Prerequisites - Completed `perplexity-install-auth` setup - Valid API credentials configured - Development environment ready ## Instructions ### Step 1: Create Entry File Create a new file for your hello world example. ### Step 2: Import and Initialize Client ```typescript import { PerplexityClient } from '@perplexity/sdk'; const client = new PerplexityClient({ apiKey: process.env.PERPLEXITY_API_KEY, }); ``` ### Step 3: Make Your First API Call ```typescript async function main() { // Your first API call here } main().catch(console.error); ``` ## Output - Working code file with Perplexity client initialization - Successful API response confirming connection - Console output showing: ``` Success! Your Perplexity connection is working. ``` ## Error Handling | Error | Cause | Solution | |-------|-------|----------| | Import Error | SDK not installed | Verify with `npm list` or `pip show` | | Auth Error | Invalid credentials | Check environment variable is set | | Timeout | Network issues | Increase timeout or check connectivity | | Rate Limit | Too many requests | Wait and retry with exponential backoff | ## Examples ### TypeScript Example ```typescript import { PerplexityClient } from '@perplexity/sdk'; const client = new PerplexityClient({ apiKey: process.env.PERPLEXITY_API_KEY, }); async function main() { // Your first API call here } main().catch(console.error); ``` ### Python Example ```python from perplexity import PerplexityClient client = PerplexityClient() # Your first API call here ``` ## Resources - [Perplexity Getting Started](https://docs.perplexity.com/getting-started) - [Perplexity API Reference](https://docs.perplexity.com/api) - [Perplexity Examples](https://docs.perplexity.com/examples) ## Next Steps Proceed to `perplexity-local-dev-loop` for development workflow setup.
