Setting Up

A guide for setup is included on the site. We've tried to make setup as smooth and straightforward as possible, letting you configure once and immediately start chatting any time Ollama is running.

Once set-up, you can start chatting. All chats are stored locally in your browser giving you complete privacy and near-instant chat load times.

Contributing/Running Locally

Contributing/running locally is also made as straightforward as possible. To get a local version of LlamaPen running on your machine, follow these steps:

0. Prerequisites

Make sure you have installed:

Git
Bun (1.3+)

1. Download

git clone https://github.com/ImDarkTom/LlamaPen
cd LlamaPen

2. Install dependencies

bun i

3. Run

If you want to run in developer mode and see changes in your code updated live, do:

bun dev

If you want to just run locally with no overhead, do:

bun run local

That's it! If you are contributing and using VSCode you can optionally install the extensions in the extensions.json file for a smoother development experience.

LlamaPen Cloud

If you are using the official site (https://llamapen.app), you may choose to enable LlamaPen Cloud. LlamaPen Cloud is an optional service that lets you run the most powerful versions of the latest models using a cloud provider if you are not able to run them locally. While LlamaPen is free and open-source, LlamaPen Cloud offers an optional subscription for increasing rate limits and accessing more expensive models.

For security reasons, LlamaPen Cloud is not open-source, however we strive to ensure your privacy (as outlined in the Cloud service privacy policy), and the only time we have access to your chats is if you explicitly enable LlamaPen Cloud in the settings and send chat requests using one of the provided models. No data is ever sent to LlamaPen Cloud if you do not enable it in the settings.

Donating

Funding to help development is always appreciated, whether that is through purchasing a subscription on LlamaPen API or donating directly, I will appreciate any sponsorship you give.
