The first essential article that our team put together showed how Artificial intelligence (AI) and large language models (LLMs) are becoming increasingly powerful tools for building web applications and how JavaScript and Node.js developers can fit into this growing space.
This next essential post adds on to the initial post with even more essential tutorials for JavaScript and Node.js to familiarize themselves with.
More Fundamentals
The previous article mentioned a few posts for getting started with AI fundamentals such as creating a simple chatbot and how Retrieval Augmented Generation(RAG) works. This post continues that trend and looks at a few more AI fundamentals that every JavaScript and Node.js developer should be familiar with.

- A quick look at MCP with Large Language Models and Node.js | Red Hat Developer
LLamaStack
Llama Stack standardizes the core building blocks that simplify AI application development. It codifies best practices across the Llama ecosystem. Members of the team have started to experiment with this new standard and the series below chronicles that journey.
- A practical guide to Llama Stack for Node.js developers
- Retrieval-augmented generation with Llama Stack and Node.js | Red Hat Developer
Podman AI Recipes
Another great way to learn about how to create AI node.js applications is with the Podman AI extension. It provides a plethora of different code recipes to get you started. Our team has contributed a few recipes over the last few months which focus on some fundamental aspects of AI and Node.js. Check out the posts below to learn more.
- Retrieval-augmented generation with Node.js, Podman AI Lab & React | Red Hat Developer
- A quick start with Large Language Models and Node.js using Podman AI lab | Red Hat Developer
