Technical Advantages of Pure Architecture
PocketFlow adheres to a design philosophy of not introducing any external dependencies, which brings a triple core value:
- Pure runtime environment to avoid "hell" problems caused by conflicting dependencies.
- Free to interface with any LLM service, developers can selectively integrate OpenAI, Claude and other APIs
- Cross-platform consistency, code behaves the same in Windows/Mac/Linux environments
Comparison tests show that under the same hardware conditions, PocketFlow's cold start speed is 5-8 times faster than mainstream frameworks. Its modular architecture also allows developers to retain only the required functionality, such as in scenarios where only the RAG is required, it is possible to remove the intelligence-related code and keep the system running. This design is particularly suitable for the development of embedded AI applications.
