fh-chat

fh-chat is a flexible library built for FastHTML applications, enabling easy integration of AI-powered chat functionality with support for multiple AI backends.

Features

• Support for multiple AI backends: Anthropic, OpenAI, and Claudette
• Real-time streaming responses for a responsive chat experience
• Chat UI using DaisyUI and Tailwind CSS
• Message state stored client side in the HTML
• Easy-to-use API for quick implementation

Installation

pip install fh-chat

Quick Start

Check out the examples here to get started. As with any FastHTML app you can run them using python like:

python examples/min_example.py

Supported AI Clients

• Anthropic: Use the anthropic library

How It Works

fh-chat uses FastHTML's HTMX integration to handle real-time updates. The chat interface is rendered server-side, and messages are streamed to the client using chunked transfer encoding. The state is stored in the HTML using hidden tags. This approach ensures a smooth chat experience without the need for complex client-side JavaScript.

Customization

The chat interface uses DaisyUI and Tailwind CSS for styling. You can customise the Tailwind of the chat page and we plan to add more customisability options.
