# Programming language support

In addition to communicating with Nutrient Web SDK, AI Assistant exposes a language-independent REST API, which means it’s language agnostic, and as such, **supports all languages and platforms**, including ASP.NET, PHP, Ruby, and Java.

Your backend must be able to generate valid [JSON Web Tokens (JWTs) for authentication](https://www.nutrient.io/guides/ai-assistant/viewer-integration/client-authentication/generate-a-jwt.md). AI Assistant uses the standardized JWT format. The benefit of this format is that it has [countless implementations in different programming](http://jwt.io) languages.
