SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Building a chat interface from scratch requires handling message layouts, input states, typing indicators, and streaming UX, which is repetitive work for every AI assistant or messaging feature. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Composable Chat Blocks: Provides ChatContainer, ChatMessage, ChatInput, and TypingIndicator components installable via the shadcn CLI. - Message Role Variants: Supports user, assistant, and system message styles with Tailwind CSS and shadcn/ui design tokens. - Use Case: A developer building an AI assistant in Next.js installs the chat block, wires the input's onSubmit handler to their API, and renders streaming responses with a typing indicator while loading. ## Quick Start Install the chat components with the shadcn CLI and build a chat interface that sends user messages to my API and displays assistant responses.

FAQPage Schema
How do I build a chat UI in React with shadcn?▼

Install the chat block with npx shadcn@latest add https://ui.inference.sh/r/chat.json, then compose ChatContainer, ChatMessage, ChatInput, and TypingIndicator. Wire ChatInput's onSubmit to your API and render messages from state.

How to show a typing indicator while waiting for AI responses?▼

What message roles does the chat message component support?▼

ChatMessage supports three roles: user messages aligned right, assistant messages aligned left, and system messages centered. Pass the role prop along with the content string to control the layout.

Can I use these chat components for streaming AI responses?▼

Yes, the components support streaming workflows by updating the messages state as chunks arrive from your API. The documentation links to real-time streaming guidance for rendering partial assistant responses.
