We're building something special together! 🚀

• 🎯 PRs are welcome! (Seriously, we high-five every contribution! ✋)
• 🐛 Bug squashing? Yes please! 🧯
• 📚 Documentation heroes needed! 🦸
• ✨ Make magic with your commits! (Follow Conventional Commits)

Prerequisites:

• 💻 macOS/Windows/Linux
• ⬢ Node.js >= 22
• 🦙 Local llama.cpp server humming along

Build the future:

npm ci       # 📦 Grab dependencies
npm run build  # 🔨 Craft the magic
npm start    # 🎬 Launch dev server (http://localhost:5173) for live-coding bliss! 🔥

Planning to redistribute the app with opinionated settings out of the box? Any JSON under src/config is baked into immutable defaults at build time (see src/config/index.ts).

If those baked defaults include a non-empty baseUrl, the inference server will auto-sync on first load so model metadata is fetched without requiring manual input.

• Frontend: React with TypeScript
• Styling: Tailwind CSS + DaisyUI
• State Management: React Context API
• Routing: React Router
• Storage: IndexedDB via Dexie.js
• Build Tool: Vite

1. App Context: Manages global configuration and settings
2. Inference Context: Handles API communication with inference providers
3. Message Context: Manages conversation state and message generation
4. Storage Utils: IndexedDB operations and localStorage management
5. Inference API: HTTP client for communicating with inference servers
