Multi-agent AI frameworks are everywhere right now — OpenAI Swarm, CrewAI, Langflow — but most of them are built Python-first. Meanwhile, a huge chunk of AI startups (60–70% in YC, by some counts) are building in TypeScript. And honestly, spinning up a whole Python backend just to leverage some of these frameworks didn’t feel worth it.
In this talk, we’ll walk through how we approached building a multi-agent AI system in TypeScript — by focusing on the core principles behind these frameworks and building something similar that fits the JS stack.
