First Run (Onboarding)
When no config.json exists, running the setup script launches an interactive wizard:
python3 scripts/setup.py
The wizard asks:
- 📺 Which sports? — Pick from Soccer, NFL, NBA, NHL, MLB, F1
- 🏆 Which teams? — Choose from popular teams or search for any team
- 🔔 Alert style? — Live scores, final only, or daily digest
- ⏰ Game-day reminders? — Get a heads-up 30 mins before kick-off
- 🌙 Quiet hours? — Pause alerts while you sleep
After setup, your config.json is ready and you can start tracking!
Re-run setup anytime:
python3 scripts/setup.py --force # Overwrites existing config
