I've been building Llama with the llama.cpp team — a tiny menu bar app that runs open models on your Mac. Here it is in 35 seconds 🦙

You don't need to be a command-line expert to run local AI. llama.app wraps the heavy lifting of llama.cpp into a clean UI, making it simple to deploy and manage models like Gemma 4. Instead of dealing with config files, you get one-click model downloads, clear memory estimates, and no coding required! Watch the video to see Gemma 4 in action as it parses tables from receipts, streams reasoning logs, and connects to MCP for web search.

llama.cpp now has an official website: llama.app Our goal is to make local AI accessible to everyone, and improving the user experience is a big part of that. On the new landing page you’ll find a single-line cross-platform installer. The installation provides a single unified `llama` entrypoint which you can use to run/serve models and interface with 3rd-party agentic applications. While oriented towards simplified user experience, the new `llama` application also provides all the advanced functionality of the existing llama.cpp tooling with which experienced users are already familiar. Also note that all GGUF models that you might have already downloaded with llama.cpp in the past will be automatically available to use without downloading again (they are stored in the common HF cache on your machine). We have many improvements in the pipeline both at the UX and at the engine level and we plan to iteratively ship new things over the coming months. One of the main focuses will be seamless integration with local-friendly 3rd-party agents (such as Pi). In the meantime, we’ll continue to listen for feedback from the community and adjust accordingly, so keep letting us know what you think and need.

If you're still looking for a minimal GPT UI, @IntelliBar is the best I've found so far, by a long shot intellibar.app/

We don't change when we want to. We change when we have to. Change is expensive. Our bodies are thrifty. #people

I'm late to the game, but finally found parsedown.org/ (for php), which does github style code fences

So, parsedown.org/ is hands down the best Markdown parser for #PHP. Looks amazing!

Consistency is overrated. Don't let your desire for consistency suppress your desire for experimentation. #programming #engineering

The less something does the more one can do with it.
Don't optimize before it works.

Return variables instead of anonymous values. This makes code more expressive and easier to debug. #programming
Name variables based on origin rather than destination. #programming
