Project Summary

This project provides a modern, user-friendly client for interacting with Ollama, an AI model inference engine. It targets users who want a private, local experience for their AI interactions, offering a simple interface that connects to an existing Ollama server.

How It Works

The application is built using Flutter, a cross-platform UI toolkit that utilizes the Dart programming language. This allows for a single codebase to target multiple operating systems, including Windows and Linux. It functions as a client, connecting to an Ollama server via its API endpoint, rather than hosting an Ollama server itself.

Quick Start & Requirements

  • Installation: Download the executable from the releases tab.
  • Prerequisites: Requires an existing Ollama server. For Linux, packagekit-gtk3-module may be needed.
  • Setup: Connect to an Ollama host via its API endpoint. Refer to the wiki guide for detailed setup instructions.

Highlighted Details

  • Modern, intuitive interface for Ollama interaction.
  • Experimental Voice Mode available.
  • Cross-platform compatibility via Flutter.
  • Focus on local and private AI experiences.

Maintenance & Community

  • Contributions are welcome; refer to the Contribution Guide.
  • Open issues for support or bug reports.

Licensing & Compatibility

  • The specific license is not explicitly stated in the README.

Limitations & Caveats

  • Desktop support is experimental and may have issues.
  • The Windows executable is unsigned and may require bypassing security warnings.
  • The application does not host an Ollama server; a separate Ollama installation is mandatory.
