Trending local LLM tools
Running language models on your own hardware keeps your data private, works offline and costs nothing per token. The tooling moves quickly: inference engines like llama.cpp and MLX, the GGUF model format, runners like Ollama and LM Studio, and the chat apps, clients and plugins built on top of them.
