100% TypeScript. 100% Production-ready. 0% hype. Only real tools and experience. Integration with LLM has finally reached a new level - now it's truly worth your time. Just a year ago, development for LLM was chaos: hacks, unstable APIs, outdated interfaces, and endless reworks. Now everything is different thanks to the AI SDK.

Why AI SDK v5 is a Game-Changer

AI SDK v5 transforms the development landscape:

  • Write once - works with any LLM provider.
  • Modern patterns and tools replace homemade solutions.
  • Production-ready, secure, and elegant TypeScript code.

If you've been waiting for stable APIs, production-ready tools, and clear architectural patterns - the moment has come.

Course Overview

In this intensive course, you'll learn how to add LLM-based features to your TypeScript applications efficiently.

The course includes 89 short videos and 57 practical exercises across 10 modules. Everything is practical, dynamic, and concise.

Key Learning Objectives

  • Basic principles of LLM including tokens, context, and windows.
  • Key architectural patterns: agents, workflows, tool-calling, and more.
  • Production tools: observability, logging, error handling.
  • Eval-Driven Development to tackle model hallucinations.
  • Effective use of AI SDK v5.

Projects You Will Create

  • Chat title generator with a dataset for evaluation.
  • Workflow for generating and enhancing messages in Slack.
  • Guardrail to protect your application.
  • Request router for sending simple tasks to cost-effective models.
  • Exploratory agent for information searching on the web.

All videos are short (2–3 minutes) and exercises are easy yet comprehensive, allowing you to learn even with a busy schedule.

The Power of AI SDK v5

AI SDK v5 is not just a library. It's a unified engineering platform that saves months of development, simplifies maintenance, and makes your AI applications as reliable as the rest of your code.

More than 3.5 million downloads per week - and it's not by chance:

  • Fully open source (Apache 2.0).
  • Supports all major frameworks and LLMs.
  • Unified interface for all models and providers.
  • Easy integration with OpenTelemetry, Langfuse, Braintrust, and other tools.
  • Works everywhere: Node, Deno, Bun.

AI SDK v5 makes LLM application development as modern as everything else in TypeScript. Join us and start creating smart, production-ready features today.

About the Author: Matt Pocock

Matt Pocock thumbnail

Matt Pocock is a UK-based developer and the founder of Total TypeScript — one of the most authoritative paid course platforms on the TypeScript language. He was previously a developer-experience engineer at Vercel and is widely cited as one of the clearest teachers of TypeScript's deeper type-system patterns. His Twitter / X presence is one of the largest single-language educational accounts in the JavaScript ecosystem.

His CourseFlix listing carries four Matt Pocock courses: Total TypeScript — Professional TypeScript Training (the platform's flagship comprehensive course), TypeScript Pro Essentials, AI SDK v5 Crash Course, and Build Your Own AI Personal Assistant in TypeScript. The TypeScript material is taught at the level of a working senior engineer who routinely uses the type system as a design tool, not just type annotations.

Material is paid; Total TypeScript runs on per-course pricing on the original platform. Courses are aimed at intermediate-and-up TypeScript developers.
