I built a zero-dependency Groq API wrapper for Node.js — simple-groq

Why I built this

I was working on a small AI chatbot project and wanted to
use Groq's blazing fast inference. But the official SDK
felt too heavy for what I needed.

So I built simple-groq — a minimal, zero-dependency
Groq API client that just works.

\bash npm install simple-groq \\

\`javascript
import { GroqClient } from "simple-groq";

const groq = new GroqClient({ apiKey: "gsk_..." });

const answer = await groq.ask("What is Node.js?");
console.log(answer);
`\

\javascript for await (const chunk of groq.stream(messages)) { process.stdout.write(chunk.content); } \\

\`javascript
const history = groq.createHistory();

history.add("system", "You are a helpful assistant.");
history.add("user", "My name is Adarsh.");

const reply = await groq.chat(history.messages);
history.add("assistant", reply);

history.add("user", "What is my name?");
const answer = await groq.chat(history.messages);
console.log(answer); // "Your name is Adarsh."
`\
