LafTools is an open-source, self-hosted toolbox for programmers, aiming to provide a privacy-first, integrated suite of development tools. It targets developers seeking a versatile, lightweight, and cross-platform solution, with a vision for extensive GPT-alike integration and a productive UI.

How It Works

LafTools is designed as a suite of linked, asynchronous, and functional toolsets. The architecture emphasizes modularity and integration, allowing for a wide range of tools to be accessed through a unified interface. It supports full GPT-alike models and aims for broad platform compatibility, including ARMv8.

Quick Start & Requirements

• Docker: docker run -e LAFREGION=US -e APPLANG=en_US --name mylaftools -v ~/.laftools-docker:/root/.laftools -d -p 0.0.0.0:39899:39899 codegentoolbox/laftools-linux-x64:latest (adjust LAFREGION and port as needed).
• Prerequisites: Node.js, npm, pnpm, TypeScript.
• Setup: Compilation requires npm install for project dependencies and pnpm for global libraries.
• Documentation: FAQ, CONTRIBUTION guides are available.

Highlighted Details

• Privacy-first, self-hosted design.
• Full GPT-alike support.
• Available Docker images for Linux x64 and ARM64.
• Automatic upgrades to the latest version.

Maintenance & Community

The project has been discontinued due to high server and domain costs. The original team is developing an IDE plugin with AI features and can be followed on Bilibili at "CodeGen工具箱".

Licensing & Compatibility

• License: GNU Affero General Public License (AGPL).
• Compatibility: AGPL's copyleft provisions may impact integration with closed-source commercial applications.

Limitations & Caveats

The project is explicitly marked as an "Unfinished Project, to be continue" and has been abandoned by its original developers. While the source code is open, ongoing maintenance and support are not guaranteed. Several associated domain names are no longer available.
