Yes. Openwebui/ollama for LLM, comfyui for stable diffusion. I just dick around with it as a toy.
I was put off by ComfyUI, seems awfully complex. How is your experience?
Any suggestions to start? I have Fooocus installed now
Same. Its somewhat useful on some very small scripting or tasks...but its mostly just to try out a new model or two. Its not really useful for anything big.
I will have to say....even my tiny models are about as good as Chatgpt/Claude/etc... which makes me think about how much people are spending on tokens regularly. I was able to get the same kind of python script started with my local tiny model that was comparable to the newest Claude code offerings.
What local models have you been using? And what hardware are you running them on? I've been playing with local LLMs a bit for exactly your use case.
I have zero interest in vibe coding or full agentic workflows. But having a local LLM generate a Bash script to help me automate parts of my home lab infrastructure would be nice.
What are your hardware specs?
