Building AI Applications on the Web

You already master React and Next.js, now leverage them to deliver intelligence. This book introduces JavaScript friendly tools that integrate AI without hidden complexity. Build chatbots, summarizers, and knowledge systems, all streaming responses in real time. Maintain full control over costs, latency, privacy, and the final user experience. 

• Vercel AI SDK setup: Create fast, streaming conversations that feel natural on every device.

Build AI into Your Web Apps by Senior Staff Engineer Theo Despoudis, teaches proven AI integration techniques using only JavaScript, React, and Next.js. 

Follow three complete projects: a ChatGPT-style bot, a document summarizer, and a RAG corporate assistant. Each chapter combines diagrams, runnable notebooks, and step-by-step code to turn theory into deployable features. 

Finish able to evaluate AI services, tune latency and spend, and explain design choices to stakeholders. Your next release ships smarter, faster, and under budget.
