# Introduction

## What is YAFAI ?

> YAFAI - Yet Another Framework for Agentic Interfaces

* YAFAI is a modular framework designed to simplify the creation and deployment of multi-agent systems.
* Instead of writing custom orchestration logic for each scenario, YAFAI allows you to define agents, their behaviours and their integrations through declarative configurations.
* It's static core ensures consistency and reusability across environments, making it ideal for research, prototyping, or production scenarios involving intelligent agents.

## Why YAFAI?

YAFAI has been built keeping the below design aspects in mind.

* **Configuration Driven :** Define multi-agent systems declaratively.
* **Compiled Core :** A stable, reusable runtime that adapts to changing configurations.
* **Portability :** Move agent systems seamlessly between local, cloud or edge.
* **Versioning :** Track,Manage system changes via version-controlled configurations.
* **Rapid Prototyping :** Iterate quickly on agent setups by simply editing configuration files.
* **Light Weight :**  Core Engine is a light weight golang binary, released for all major platforms.

## Architecture

YAFAI as a project is built around two modules,

* **YAFAI-Core** : The core engine that manages agent orchestration and memory
* **YAFAI-Skills**: The tools and integration server for YAFAI Agents
