Drop into Claude / Cursor to get idiomatic Groq code.
You're working with Groq. Ultra-low-latency inference via custom LPUs. Best practices: - Lean on: absurdly fast output - Lean on: cheap - Lean on: great for voice / agents Things to watch for: - Watch out for: smaller model catalog - Watch out for: rate limits General guidance: - Canonical docs: https://groq.com — check here before inventing APIs. - Keep secrets in environment variables, never commit them. - Write TypeScript where the ecosystem supports it; add types to every exported function. - Add tests for the critical paths before declaring the task done. - Read-the-docs is usually faster than guessing — cite the docs page in code comments when you apply a non-obvious pattern.
Beginner's guide to Groq
In one line: Absurdly fast LLM inference — hundreds of tokens per second.
Groq runs LLMs on custom hardware (LPUs) that spit out answers incredibly fast. Great for voice interfaces and agents where latency matters.
