About Ax

Axflow is a modular, open-source TypeScript framework for building robust natural language powered applications. It provides a collection of modules that can be adopted incrementally, including a zero-dependency SDK for building LLM applications with React hooks and streaming utilities (axgen), a framework for connecting data to large language models, and an evaluation framework for LLM output quality (axeval). Upcoming modules include data extraction and processing (extract), a serving framework for running any LLM model (serve), and fine-tuning libraries (finetune). Axflow is MIT licensed and designed for developers who want a code-first, flexible approach to AI development.
