chatbot-template

Why we included this project

This template is a practical starting point for teams that want a real chat UI without building every detail themselves. It combines Next.js, the AI SDK, shadcn components, and the Vercel AI Gateway to deliver streaming responses with markdown formatting, tool calls, and per-provider web search right away. The interesting part is the human-in-the-loop questionnaire: the model can ask the user clarifying questions through a dedicated component, which is a pattern many chat apps want but rarely get as a ready-made piece. Because it stays minimal and the code is well organized, you can read it to learn how the AI SDK handles typed message streams, then adapt it into something that.
