Install lmstudio on Omarchy
LM Studio is a desktop app for browsing, downloading, and running large language models locally, so your prompts and data never leave your computer. It offers a ChatGPT-style chat interface with threads and folders, an OpenAI-compatible local API server for developers, and a model browser that pulls open models from Hugging Face. It can also connect out to larger cloud models when you want them, but local, offline inference is the core pitch.
