React Basics + CopilotKit
Last month Ron Dagdag talked to us about context-aware copilots in web apps. During the presentation, one tool he showed us was CopilotKit (https://www.copilotkit.ai/), a React-based set of tooling for building AI Copilots.
In this meeting we're going hands-on to learn some React basics with some CopilotKit sample applications. Bring your laptop.
What you need to have installed:
- Node 22 (or better, NVM)
- Any text editor
- Git
- Free CopilotKit Cloud account (https://docs.copilotkit.ai/quickstart)
Other recommended things:
- Install Ollama (https://ollama.com/)
You will walk away with a few sample applications running on your machine and a little more understanding of how React works so you can get started building your own apps.
Improving is providing pizza at 6:00 and the presentation will begin at 6:30.
