Known weaknesses

Each one links to the public issue, changelog or docs page it came from, where we have one.

1. 01

   Limited language support beyond TypeScript and Node.js

   The tool is primarily designed for TypeScript and Node.js, making it less accessible to developers using other languages.

2. 02

   Poor documentation for advanced use cases

   Documentation focuses on basic usage but lacks detailed explanations for more complex scenarios or customization options.

3. 03

   Performance issues with high-volume streaming requests

   Users have reported delays and increased latency when handling a large number of concurrent streaming responses from OpenAI APIs.

4. 04

   Small community size limits support and contribution

   The project has relatively few contributors and limited activity on forums or issue trackers, which can slow down troubleshooting and feature requests.

What it does well

• Support for streaming responses from OpenAI APIs in Node.js and TypeScript.

• Easily integrate AI into real-time applications with minimal setup.

• MIT licensed, open-source project.
