Description of changes

  • Improvements & Bug fixes
    • The reference overview says that the Chroma community maintains open source clients for other languages, but no page lists them since [DOC] IA improvements and getting-started update #6182 removed the introduction page. This adds a Community SDKs section with the community clients that support the v2 API of Chroma 1.x and have been updated since December 2025: C#/.NET, C#/.NET (Microsoft.Extensions.VectorData), Dart, Go, Java (two clients), PHP, PHP (Laravel) and Ruby.
    • Compared with the list on that page: the Elixir and Clojure clients do not support the v2 API, the R client has had no release since March 2025, phpMyChroma is a web interface rather than a client, and the C#/.NET row links ChromaDotNet/ChromaDB.Client, which continues ssone95/ChromaDB.Client, the client listed before. The original package, ChromaDB.Client, is now deprecated on NuGet in favor of ChromaDotNet.Client. I maintain the .NET one.
    • Like PHP (Laravel), the C#/.NET (Microsoft.Extensions.VectorData) row is for a framework: it links the Chroma provider for Microsoft.Extensions.VectorData in the AI Community Toolkit of the .NET Foundation, which Semantic Kernel recommends and Microsoft Agent Framework lists. It is built on ChromaDotNet.Client.

Where the packages are used:

Test plan

  • mint dev renders the section, and every link answers 200.
  • For each client, the v2 API is in the source of its default branch, and its last release or commit is from December 2025 or later.

Migration plan

None: documentation only.

Observability plan

None.

@rescrv, could you approve the pending workflows here when you have a moment? This brings back the community SDK list that #6182 removed. Today the C#/.NET client it linked, ChromaDB.Client, was deprecated on NuGet in favor of ChromaDotNet.Client (ssone95/ChromaDB.Client#85).
