Skimming the source code I got really confused to see TSX files. I'd never seen Ink (React for CLIs) before, and I like it!

I'd rather apt-get install something.

But that seems not a possibility in the modern days of software distribution, especially with GPU-dependent stuff like LLMs.

So yeah, I get why this exists.

Wow, that produced a flashback to using TinyFugue in the 90s.

Is this doing local inference? If so, what inference engine is it using?
demosthanos 5 hours ago [-]
No, it's a thin wrapper around an API, probably OpenRouter or similar:

I'd love to see an LLM outputting over a Teletype. Just tschtschtschtsch as it hammers away the paper feed.

Last week or so, there was the LLM finetune posted that speaks like a 19th century Irish author. I look forward a bit to having an LLModem model.

Using React to render a CLI tool is something. I'm not sure how I feel about that. It feels like like 90% of the code is handling issues with rendering.
demosthanos 5 hours ago [-]
I mean, it's a thin wrapper around LLM APIs, so it's not surprising that most of the code is rendering. I'm not sure what you're referring to by "handling issues with rendering", though—it looks like a pretty bog standard React app. Am I missing something?
