Vercel AI SDK
The TypeScript toolkit for building AI apps. Unified API across OpenAI, Anthropic, Google. Streaming, tool calling, structured output, multi-step agents. 50K+ GitHub stars.
The Vercel AI SDK is the standard TypeScript library for building AI-powered applications. It provides a unified interface — write code once, swap between OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, or any provider. Key features: streaming chat responses, structured JSON output with Zod schemas, tool calling with automatic execution, and multi-step agent loops. The `ai` core package handles the LLM interaction, `ai/react` provides React hooks (useChat, useCompletion), and `ai/rsc` enables server-side streaming with React Server Components. Over 50K GitHub stars. I use it in nearly every project and built a complete course on it for this site.
