## Installation

Open a terminal and run:

```bash
$ pip install chainlit
$ chainlit hello
```

If this opens the `hello app` in your browser, you're all set!

## 🚀 Quickstart

### 🐍 Pure Python

Create a new file `demo.py` with the following code:

```python
import chainlit as cl

@cl.step(type="tool")
async def tool():
# Fake tool
await cl.sleep(2)
return "Response from the tool!"

@cl.on_message # this function will be called every time a user inputs a message in the UI
async def main(message: cl.Message):
"""
This function is called every time a user inputs a message in the UI.
It sends back an intermediate response from the tool, followed by the final answer.

Args:
message: The user's message.

Returns:
None.
"""

final_answer = await cl.Message(content="").send()

# Call the tool
final_answer.content = await tool()

await final_answer.update()
```

Now run it!

```
$ chainlit run demo.py -w
```
