Unlock the Power of Edge AI: Build Private, Blazing-Fast AI Applications Directly in the Browser!

Are you tired of the high costs, slow response times, and privacy risks of cloud-based AI APIs? The future of AI is local, and this book is your comprehensive guide to mastering the cutting-edge technologies that make it possible.

The Edge of AI is the definitive manual for JavaScript and TypeScript developers looking to integrate powerful Large Language Models (LLMs) into their web applications without a server. This book goes beyond theory, providing hands-on, production-grade examples to help you build AI features that are private by design, work offline, and feel instantaneous.

Inside, you will master the \"local-first\" AI stack from the ground up. You’ll start by running models directly in the browser with Transformers.js and the ONNX runtime, then supercharge your applications with hardware acceleration using WebGPU and WebAssembly (WASM). Learn to set up and manage powerful local LLM servers like Ollama and build hybrid architectures that intelligently route tasks for optimal performance.

What you will build and learn:

Privacy-First AI Features: Create sentiment analyzers, summarizers, and RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) systems where user data never leaves the device.
Blazing-Fast Performance: Implement advanced techniques like optimistic UI updates, Service Worker caching, and WebGPU acceleration to eliminate latency and create a seamless user experience.
Slash Your Costs: Drastically reduce your reliance on expensive server-side GPUs by leveraging the user's own hardware for inference.
Advanced AI Engineering: Go beyond basic prompting with practical guides on fine-tuning (LoRA), synthetic data generation, and building multi-agent workflows.
Production-Ready Systems: Master essential operational practices, including A/B testing prompts, cost tracking, rate limiting, and defending against security threats like prompt injection.

Whether you're a frontend developer aiming to build next-generation UIs, a full-stack engineer architecting resilient systems, or an AI enthusiast eager to explore the edge, this book provides the tools and knowledge you need. Dive into the future of web development and become a leader in the new era of local-first AI.
