Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

Visual Framework Chatbot Prompt component

Readme

Chatbot Prompt Component

Message bubbles for user and assistant messages in the chatbot.

Usage

When to use this component

Use the chatbot prompt component to:

  • Display individual messages in the conversation thread between user and assistant
  • Show clear visual distinction between user messages and AI responses
  • Present structured content including text, sources, and interactive elements
  • Provide consistent formatting for all message types in the chat interface
  • Enable message-level interactions like feedback, copying, or sharing

The prompt component is the core building block of any chatbot conversation, handling both simple text exchanges and complex responses with multiple elements.

When not to use this component

This component is not to be used independent of the standalone or modal chatbot containers as it may not work correctly

The prompt component is essential for chatbot interfaces, but consider alternatives when:

  • Displaying system messages or notifications (use dedicated alert components instead)
  • Showing typing indicators or loading states (use specialized loading components)
  • Presenting error messages that aren't part of the conversation flow
  • Displaying welcome screens or introductory content (use dedicated welcome components)

Different message types may need different visual treatment than standard conversation prompts.

Implementation

The prompt component provides:

  • Distinct styling for user vs. assistant messages
  • Avatar display with customizable images and names
  • Support for rich content including HTML, links, and embedded elements
  • Integration points for sources, action prompts, and feedback controls
  • Loading states for messages that are being generated
  • Responsive design that adapts to different screen sizes
  • Proper semantic markup for accessibility

Messages appear in chronological order in the chat thread, with user messages typically aligned to one side and assistant responses to the other.

Install

yarn add --dev @visual-framework/vf-chatbot-prompt
