# Quickstart ## Introduction Before you begin, ensure you are: - Familiar with Java environment setup and development - Familiar with Java build tools like Maven > Note: Your environment must be Java 8 or higher. ## Hello World **Step 1: Create a Java project and add the Maven dependency:** ```xml com.agentsflex agents-flex-bom 1.0.0-rc.10 ``` Or use Gradle: ```java implementation 'com.agentsflex:agents-flex-bom:1.0.0-rc.10' ``` **Step 2: Create a Java class with a `main` method:** ```java public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { OpenAILlmConfig config = new OpenAILlmConfig(); config.setApiKey("sk-rts5NF6n*******"); Llm llm = new OpenAILlm(config); String response = llm.chat("What is your name?"); System.out.println(response); } } ``` Simplify LLM object creation using `OpenAILlm.of`: ```java public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { Llm llm = new OpenAILlm.of("sk-rts5NF6n*******"); String response = llm.chat("what is your name?"); System.out.println(response); } } ``` ## Streaming Conversation Streaming Conversation requires calling the `chatStream` method, and passing the prompt with `StreamResponseListener` object, as shown in the code below: ```java public class Main { public static void main(String[] args) { Llm llm = new OpenAILlm.of("sk-rts5NF6n*******"); llm.chatStream("what is your name?", new StreamResponseListener() { @Override public void onMessage(ChatContext context, AiMessageResponse response) { System.out.println(">>>> " + response.getMessage().getContent()); } }); System.out.println(response); } } ```
