I've been building MinimalChat for a while now, and based on the feedback I've received, it's in a pretty decent place for general use. I figured I'd share it here for anyone who might be interested!

Quick Features Overview:

Mobile PWA Support: Install the site like a normal app on any device.
Any OpenAI formatted API support: Works with LM Studio, OpenRouter, etc.
Local Storage: All data is stored locally in the browser with minimal setup. Just enter a port and go in Docker.
Experimental Conversational Mode (GPT Models for now)
Basic File Upload and Storage Support: Files are stored locally in the browser.
Vision Support with Maintained Context
Regen/Edit Previous User Messages
Swap Models Anytime: Maintain conversational context while switching models.
Set/Save System Prompts: Set the system prompt. Prompts will also be saved to a list so they can be switched between easily.

The idea is to make it essentially foolproof to deploy or set up while being generally full-featured and aesthetically pleasing. No additional databases or servers are needed, everything is contained and managed inside the web app itself locally.

It's another chat client in a sea of clients but it is unique in its own ways in my opinion. Enjoy! Feedback is always appreciated!

This project is entirely web based using Vue 3, it doesn't use langchain and I haven't looked into it before honestly but I do see they offer a JS library I could utilize. I'll definitely be looking into that!

As a result there is no LLM function calling currently and apps like LM Studio don't support function calling when hosting models locally from what I remember. It's definitely on my list to add the ability to retrieve outside data like searching the web and generating a response with the results etc..

Been having decent success with it but gotta implement proper document embedding.
