knobkit is an open source toolkit for building TypeScript web applications, especially browser based AI applications. Developers declare interface widgets and write event handlers in a straightforward coding model, allowing them to create working applications quickly without managing extensive boilerplate. The same application file can run entirely in the browser or use handlers hosted on a stateless Node server, with the deployment mode changed by swapping one line. The project provides a starter workflow through npm create knobkit at latest and is designed to scaffold an application in about thirty seconds. Its playground supports live code editing and immediate rerunning, which helps developers test ideas interactively. The example experience includes a local Whisper application, with models running directly in the browser and no installation required for the playground. This can support privacy focused AI experiences because processing may happen locally. knobkit is distributed under the MIT license, is available through GitHub and npm, and requires Node version 22 or newer. It is intended for rapid prototyping, interactive tools, shareable web applications, and lightweight AI interfaces that can be hosted in different environments.
