Once you have the prerequisites installed, you can clone the ygo-ruling-ai-chatbot repository from GitHub.

Open your terminal or command prompt.
Navigate to the directory where you want to store the project files.

Run the following command:


git clone https://github.com/nedhmn/ygo-ruling-ai-chatbot.git
