when I first found out about this knew a lot will be possible with is, generative Ui is great, but can be better, tambo really fits this shoe, and i am looking forward to its great achievements and improvements (now that it's opensource)

#12Personally, It Feels like this will change the whole ai assistant industry the way chatgpt and claude. But again it requires multiple examples the way vercel did it for themselves at vercel.com/templates. Even perplexity, scira work with beautiful ui generation for visualizing data to the user but they have to do it manually as far as i know.

Hi, thanks for the feedback. Good luck with Coldran.
To answer this question:
> why would anyone use this instead of building their own unique ui
0. Under our component library is tambo-ai/react, which are just React hooks, so you could build your UI from scratch (we had a user do this over a weekend). They apologized, "sorry I didn't use your ui components".
1. Most of our components are just for managing sending messages, showing chat state, etc. The rendered or intearcted with components are up to the developer and often pulled from their existing app (chart, forms, tables, etc.) and styling is up to them.
2. All of those provided UI components are the “copy and paste” model (like shadcn). You can easily update their styles to match your UI or customize them by simply changing the tambo.css file we add to your project.
> Internal Dashboard Chatbots can allow people to interact with some api endpoints which other components use within the website with a prompt and then the ui appears ~ that would be cool like creation of projects or changing the git connection from one repo to another without changing the pages.
We have this experience inside our dashboard https://tambo.co/dashboard you should try it!

#13Looks very useful as I'm exploring ways to make the applications that I work on more dynamic.

#14I like how this is not just adding a chat bot but also enabling tool calling.
I really need all the applications to become like cursor.

Ofc needs tool calling and graphical UI. This isn't 1997.

#17Dynamic UI components are sorely needed with the proliferation of chat tools. In comparison with text output, a graphic interface/display conveys much more information quicker.
