AI SDK v5 Crash Course

Integration with LLM has finally reached a new level – now it’s truly worth your time. Just a year ago, development for LLM was real chaos: hacks, unstable APIs, outdated interfaces, and endless reworks. Now everything is different – thanks to the AI SDK.

AI SDK v5 changes the game:

Write once – works with any LLM-provider.
Modern patterns and tools instead of homemade solutions.
Production-ready, secure, and elegant TypeScript code.

If you’ve been waiting for stable APIs, production-ready tools, and clear architectural patterns – the moment has come.

In this intensive course, you will learn how to add LLM-based features to your TypeScript applications.

The course includes 89 short videos and 57 practical exercises across 10 modules. Everything is as practical, dynamic, and concise as possible.

You will master:

Basic principles of LLM (tokens, context, windows, etc.)
Key architectural patterns: agents, workflows, tool-calling, and much more
Production tools: observability, logging, error handling
Eval-Driven Development – an approach to combat model hallucinations
And, of course, everything about how to effectively use AI SDK v5

Projects you will create during the course:

Chat title generator with a dataset for eval
Workflow for generating and enhancing messages in Slack
Guardrail to protect your application
Request router capable of sending simple tasks to cheaper models
Exploratory agent for information searching on the web

All videos are short (2–3 minutes), exercises are easy yet comprehensive – you can learn even with a busy schedule.

AI SDK v5 is not just a library. It’s a unified engineering platform that saves months of development, simplifies maintenance, and makes your AI applications as reliable as the rest of your code.

More than 3.5 million downloads per week – and it’s not by chance:

Fully open source (Apache 2.0)
Supports all major frameworks and LLMs
Unified interface for all models and providers
Easy integration with OpenTelemetry, Langfuse, Braintrust, and other tools
Works everywhere: Node, Deno, Bun

AI SDK v5 makes LLM application development as modern as everything else in TypeScript. It’s time to join in – and start creating smart, production-ready features.
