FAQPage Schema
How do I build a streaming AI chat interface in Next.js?

Streaming AI chat interfaces deliver real-time responses using Next.js App Router with server-side streaming. This Skill provides production-ready Message, Conversation, and Response components built on shadcn/ui that handle streaming responses, tool calls, and reasoning displays out of the box for Next.js 15+ apps.

Can I use shadcn/ui components with the AI SDK for chat?

Yes. These components integrate shadcn/ui with the AI SDK v5 to create chat UIs with streaming support. They're designed for Next.js App Router and include accessibility, error handling, and workflows for rendering tool calls, reasoning, and source citations alongside streaming messages.

What's the best way to display AI tool calls and reasoning in a chat UI?

Tool and Reasoning components visualize agent execution and decision-making within the chat flow. This Skill bundles them with Message and Conversation components, letting you render streaming tool displays and reasoning traces alongside chat messages in a cohesive interface.

Do I need to set up Tailwind and shadcn/ui separately before using these components?

Yes. These components require Tailwind v4 and shadcn/ui integration as prerequisites. You'll set up both in your Next.js 15+ App Router project, then install the Message, Conversation, Response, and other components to build your streaming chat interface.

How do I add source citations to AI responses in a chat?

The Sources component renders citations and references from AI responses. This Skill includes it alongside Message and Response components, letting you display and link sources directly within streaming chat messages.

What happens if streaming responses fail or disconnect in the chat?

These components include error handling built into the Message, Response, and Conversation layers to manage streaming failures and disconnections gracefully. Exact recovery workflows depend on your AI SDK and server configuration.
