+# Sentiment Analysis Project
+
+This project is a sentiment analysis application that classifies tweets as positive or negative. The application is built using Python and Flask and containerized using Docker. The dataset consists of labeled tweets, and the best-performing model is selected from multiple machine learning models.

+
+## Getting Started
+
+### Prerequisites
+
+- Python 3.x
+- Docker
+
+### Set Up Virtual Environment and Install Dependencies
+
+1. **Create Virtual Environment**
+
+    ```bash
+    cd sentiment_analysis
+    python -m venv venv
+    ```
+
+2. **Activate Virtual Environment**
+
+    - On Windows:
+
+        ```bash
+        .\venv\Scripts\Activate.ps1
+        ```
+
+    - On macOS and Linux:
+
+        ```bash
+        source venv/bin/activate
+        ```
+
+3. **Install Dependencies**
+
+    ```bash
+    pip install -r requirements.txt
+    ```
+
+### Preprocess Data and Train Models
+
+Run the `sentiment_analysis.py` script to preprocess the data, train the models, and save the best model:
+
+```bash
+python sentiment_analysis.py
+```
+### Test Flask App Locally
+Run the Flask app locally to test the sentiment prediction API:
+
+```bash
+python app.py
+```
+Send a POST request to http://127.0.0.1:5000/predict with a JSON body containing the text to predict. For example, using PowerShell:
+```bash
+$headers = @{'Content-Type' = 'application/json'}
+$body = '{"text": "I love this product!"}'
+$response = Invoke-WebRequest -Uri http://127.0.0.1:5000/predict -Method POST -Headers $headers -Body $body
+$response.Content
+```
+### Using the Docker Image
+To run the Docker image on any machine with Docker installed:
+```bash
+docker pull aarize/sentiment-analysis:latest
+docker run --rm -p 3000:5000 your_dockerhub_username/sentiment-analysis:latest
+```
+
