Overview
A streamed answer feels immediate even when total latency is unchanged. Streaming through your own server also keeps your API key off the client.
In this lesson you will:
- Stream tokens from the server to the browser
- Render partial output without layout thrash
- Handle cancellation and mid-stream errors
Pro Tip
Use caching and revalidation wisely to ensure your app stays fast and data remains fresh without unnecessary requests.
