Hey Laravel community! I'm calling on all developers who are passionate about AI, Laravel, or open-source projects to join me in improving Sidekick—a Laravel package that brings together the power of OpenAI, Claude, Cohere, and Mistral APIs.
Why Sidekick?
The Big Idea
Imagine a world where switching between AI models is as simple as swapping out a few lines of code. That's exactly what Sidekick offers—a unified interface for interacting with multiple AI services like chatbots, completions, embeddings, and more! No more wrestling with different API formats—just clean, easy-to-use syntax.
Why This Matters
AI is rapidly evolving, and integrating it into Laravel apps is becoming a common requirement. With Sidekick, you can stay ahead of the curve by supporting multiple AI models without reworking your entire codebase every time a new API drops. This project has the potential to make Laravel devs more efficient, creative, and impactful.
How You Can Help
I'm looking for contributors of all levels—whether you’re a seasoned Laravel expert or just getting started with AI, there's a place for you in the Sidekick project! Here's how you can contribute:
- Feature Development: Love coding? Add new features or improve existing ones!
- Bug Hunting: Help us make the package as robust as possible by identifying and fixing bugs.
- Ideas & Feedback: Not ready to code but have awesome ideas? I want to hear from you! Let’s brainstorm together.
- Docs & Examples: Write or improve the documentation and example use cases. Help others onboard easily.
- Spread the Word: Even if you're not contributing code, giving Sidekick a star or sharing it with fellow devs is a huge help.
