Chatty
github.comA browser-based chat interface for open-source language models that runs entirely on-device using WebGPU, including local retrieval-augmented question answering over uploaded files.
llmcord
github.comA tool that turns Discord into a collaborative front end for any OpenAI-compatible LLM, using reply chains as conversation history so no database is required.
The LeaderWorkerSet and DisaggregatedSet APIs
lws.sigs.k8s.ioA Kubernetes API for deploying a group of pods as one replication unit, aimed at multi-host AI and ML inference workloads that shard a large model across multiple nodes.
speculators
docs.vllm.aiA library for training speculative-decoding draft models that deploy directly into LLM inference engines such as vLLM, speeding up inference without changing output quality.
vMLX
vmlx.netA self-hosted inference server for LLMs, vision-language models and image generation on Apple Silicon, exposing OpenAI, Anthropic and Ollama compatible HTTP APIs with no third-party API keys required.
LLM.swift
github.comA Swift library for running large language models locally on macOS, iOS, watchOS, tvOS and visionOS, built around llama.cpp with automatic chat-template handling from a model's GGUF metadata.
llm-ls
github.comA language server that connects code editors to LLMs for code completion, handling prompt construction, context-window tokenization and multi-backend model access so editor extensions can stay lightweight.
Splash
inco.aiA local inference engine for Apple silicon that runs coding agents and OpenAI or Anthropic compatible applications on one Mac, combining speculative decoding with Metal kernels and automatic memory planning.
Ollama Copilot
github.comA proxy written in Go that lets a local Ollama model, or DeepSeek and Mistral, act as a GitHub Copilot style code completion backend for editors such as Neovim, VS Code and Zed.
SGLang-Omni
sgl-project.github.ioA serving framework for audio and multimodal AI models that runs text-to-speech, speech recognition, and omni chat models behind an OpenAI-compatible API, built to handle multi-stage generation pipelines.
TheWhisper
thestage.aiOptimized, open-weight Whisper speech-to-text models with streaming inference engines for NVIDIA GPUs and on-device Apple Silicon, aimed at low-latency real-time transcription.
MLServer
mlserver.readthedocs.ioAn open-source inference server that serves machine learning models over REST and gRPC, compliant with the KFServing V2 Dataplane spec.
AQBot
app.aqbot.topA local-first, cross-platform desktop AI workbench unifying multi-provider chat, ACP coding agents, a knowledge base, MCP tools and an API gateway, keeping application data and files under the user's own control.
Mosec
mosecorg.github.ioA high-performance model-serving framework, with a Rust web layer and a pure-Python interface, that adds dynamic batching and pipelined CPU/GPU stages to turn a trained machine-learning model into an efficient online service.
OpenVINO Model Server
docs.openvino.aiA production-grade C++ inference server, built on OpenVINO and optimized for Intel hardware, that serves generative AI, agentic and classic deep-learning models over OpenAI-compatible and KServe network APIs.
ChatLLM.cpp
github.comA pure C++ implementation, based on ggml, for running real-time multimodal chat with retrieval-augmented generation on CPU or GPU across models from under 1B to more than 300B parameters.
hf-mem
github.comA lightweight Python CLI that estimates the inference memory a Hugging Face model needs, reading only its Safetensors or GGUF metadata over HTTP range requests rather than downloading the model.
AnyLanguageModel
github.comA Swift package that is an API-compatible drop-in replacement for Apple's Foundation Models framework, adding support for Core ML, MLX, llama.cpp and several hosted model APIs behind the same interface.
DS4 Control
github.comA signed macOS menu-bar app that launches, supervises and monitors a local DeepSeek V4 or V4.1 inference server, downloading model weights and gating launches by a Mac's available RAM.
Ollama Grid Search
github.comA cross-platform desktop app, written in Rust and React, that iterates over combinations of local Ollama models, prompts and inference parameters and lets a user visually compare and A/B test the results.
A 10-week, 30-minutes-a-day roadmap that has an engineer build, instrument and optimize one OpenAI-compatible LLM inference service, covering vLLM, SGLang, quantization, speculative decoding and cost-aware routing.
ChatGPT CLI
github.comA multi-provider command-line interface for OpenAI, Azure, Perplexity, LLaMA and other large language models, with streaming, interactive chat, prompt files, image and audio input, MCP tool calls and an experimental agent mode.
MLX Studio
mlx.studioA native macOS app that wraps a self-hosted vMLX inference server, serving language, vision and image-generation models over an OpenAI-compatible API on Apple Silicon with no Python setup.
vLLM 2080 Ti Definitive Edition
github.comA hardware-focused fork of vLLM tuned for dual RTX 2080 Ti and other Turing (SM75) GPUs, adding launcher profiles and validated inference routes for running 27B to 35B class models locally.
