AI Chat Component for Conversational UIs

[diegodscamara]

Hi team,

First off, amazing work with Origin UI, the design consistency and developer experience are top-notch! I’d like to propose a new component addition that could be incredibly helpful for many devs building modern AI applications:

💡 Suggested Component:

AI Chat / Conversational UI Component

This component would serve as a highly customizable building block for apps integrating chat-based AI assistants, customer service bots, or LLM-based tools.

✨ Common Features to Consider:

• Chat Message Bubbles (user + bot distinction with avatars)
• Typing Indicator (Bot is typing... animation)
• Scroll to the latest message behaviour
• Message streaming (like OpenAI’s token-by-token display)
• Markdown support in messages (code blocks, links, lists)
• System Messages (e.g., status updates or warnings)
• Prompt Input Area with:
  • Multiline support
  • Shortcut for sending (Enter vs Shift+Enter)
  • Optional mic or upload button
• Loading states & skeletons
• Customizable themes (light/dark, primary accent)

🔧 Advanced Considerations:

• Token usage badge or counter
• Feedback (thumbs up/down per response)
• Auto-scroll toggling
• Virtualization for performance with long conversations
• Accessibility (WCAG compliance)

This could be a highly impactful component, especially with the rise of GPT and AI integrations in SaaS platforms, internal tools, and chatbots. I’d be happy to help prototype or contribute to the discussion further!

Thanks for your amazing work!
