@seriouslag/react-chatbot v0.0.4

@seriouslag/react-chatbot

A simple chatbot component for React to interface with AI chats. It uses @MUI for some of the components. Internally uses tailwindcss for styling.

Peer dependencies include:

• react
• react-dom
• @mui/material
• @mui/icons-material
• @mui/lab
• rxjs

Currently only one service is available, the NdJsonChatService, which is a chat service that sends messages to a server that accepts NDJSON messages.

The chat service is a simple interface that can be implemented to send messages to a chat server.

• Split service and components into separate packages
• Add Unit tests
• Add example page
• Remove MUI dependencies
