The SDK features a typed client with functional options pattern, context-aware requests, named types instead of stringly-typed interfaces, and zero external dependencies. It supports chat completions and embeddings, with streaming, image generation, audio, and vision on the roadmap. The project is MIT licensed and available via go get. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
