Built With
- shadcn/ui — The AI composes from real shadcn components (cards, charts, forms, menus, layouts). Every generated page is accessible, polished, and uses the same components you'd
npx shadcn addinto your own project. - CopilotKit — Streams structured UI from the agent to the browser in real time. Passes the full component schema as agent context so the model knows exactly what it can build.
- LangGraph — Powers the agent backend. Handles reasoning, tool use (web search, site extraction via Tavily), and conversation memory across turns.
- Render — All three services deploy from a single
render.yamlBlueprint. Render wires service URLs together automatically viafromServicereferences — push tomainand you're live.
Architecture
Three services in a pnpm monorepo:
UI (React + Vite) → Runtime (Hono + CopilotKit) → Agent (FastAPI + LangGraph)
| Service | Path | What it does |
|---|---|---|
ui | apps/ui | Chat interface, component rendering, code export |
runtime | apps/runtime | CopilotKit runtime, routes messages to the agent |
agent | apps/agent | LangGraph agent with search tools, returns structured UI |
