## What it is
A React component library for rendering LLM output in web applications. It smoothly displays streamed tokens at native frame rate, removes broken markdown syntax, and supports custom components and syntax-highlighted code blocks.

## Use cases
- render streaming LLM output in a React chat app
- display markdown from ChatGPT or Claude responses without broken syntax
- add custom components like buttons to LLM output
- smooth out pauses in streamed LLM tokens
- show syntax-highlighted code blocks from LLM responses
- build a chat interface for any LLM model

## When to choose
- you are building a React app that displays streamed LLM responses
- you need polished rendering of markdown and code blocks from LLM output
- you want headless components you can style yourself
- you need smooth, frame-rate-matched rendering of token streams

## When to avoid
- you are not using React
- you need a full chat backend or LLM API integration rather than output rendering
- you need a complete pre-styled chat UI out of the box
