Building for fun • 1y
Working On open-source PerplexityAI Hey guys, just showing my work and progress on my idea. I will launch by next month hopefully. I've completed my work for: 1. Streaming text 2. Formatted responses 3. Citations and websites Currently, I'm working on finishing: 1. Chat history 2. Documents library 3. LLM settings I'm using the Vercel AI SDK, Next.js, Firebase, and Bing to ensure setting up and running the project is as straightforward as possible. I hope to support more LLMs, like Claude, Mistral, and Gemini, to offer a mix-and-match approach. Although I've accomplished a lot, there are still a few more weeks of work ahead. Unfortunately, I've failed to raise any funds for my project and am fully dependent on the open-source community for support. Note: VCs told me I can't build perplexity so simply because I don't have that much skills or high enough pedigree. They are literally blinded by the fact that any average dev can also build such an app.
