Show HN: Gerbil – an open source desktop app for running LLMs locally

https://github.com/lone-cloud/gerbil
1•lone-cloud•1h ago
Gerbil is an open source app that I've been working on for the last couple of months. The development now is largely done and I'm unlikely to add anymore major features. Instead I'm focusing on any bug fixes, small QoL features and dependency upgrades.

Under the hood it runs llama.cpp (via koboldcpp) backends and allows easy integration with the popular modern frontends like Open WebUI, SillyTavern, ComfyUI, StableUI (built-in) and KoboldAI Lite (built-in).

Why did I create this? I wanted an all-in-one solution for simple text and image-gen local LLMs. I got fed up with needing to manage multiple tools for the various LLM backends and frontends. In addition, as a Linux Wayland user I needed something that would work and look great on my system.
