The official Algolia JavaScript/TypeScript API client for interacting with Algolia's hosted search service. It provides a thin, low-level HTTP client that works in both browser and Node.js environments with UMD and ESM support.
Use cases
- add Algolia search to a JavaScript app
- index records into Algolia from Node.js
- query an Algolia index from the browser
- manage Algolia indices and API keys programmatically
- build instant search experiences with a lightweight client
- integrate Algolia into a TypeScript project
When to choose
- you use Algolia as your search backend in JavaScript or TypeScript
- you need an official, fully-typed client for browser and Node.js
- you want a minimal low-level HTTP client rather than a full UI library
When to avoid
- you want a self-hosted search engine like Elasticsearch or Meilisearch
- you need search UI components rather than an API client (use InstantSearch instead)
- your project does not use Algolia's hosted service
