Next.js AI Chatbot

The Next.js AI Chatbot template is a comprehensive starting point for building AI-powered conversational applications. Leveraging Next.js, it offers advanced routing, React Server Components (RSCs), and Server Actions for enhanced performance. Key features include the AI SDK for generating text and structured objects with LLMs, supporting xAI, OpenAI, and other model providers. Styling is handled with shadcn/ui and Tailwind CSS, while component primitives from Radix UI ensure accessibility and flexibility. Data persistence is achieved through Neon Serverless Postgres for chat history and user data, and Vercel Blob for efficient file storage. Auth.js provides simple and secure authentication. The template uses Vercel AI Gateway for accessing multiple AI models through a unified interface, with default configuration including xAI models. It supports direct LLM providers like OpenAI, Anthropic, and Cohere via the AI SDK. Running locally requires environment variables defined in .env.example, with Vercel Environment Variables recommended. The template can be deployed to Vercel with one click.
