Project Context

Local/Chat is a browser-first AI chat application that loads open-source models with WebLLM and runs inference entirely on the user's GPU via WebGPU. Once a model is downloaded and cached, the app continues working offline, including model inference, chat history, and settings. The experience is built around privacy-first design, with all conversations and preferences stored locally and no external sync.
