## What it is
An open-source web-based chat UI for Ollama, forked from chatbot-ui, that lets users chat with locally hosted LLMs. It supports document (PDF/TXT/MD) and image attachments, streaming responses, code block rendering, and Docker deployment.

## Use cases
- chat with local ollama models in a web ui
- self-hosted chatgpt alternative interface
- upload pdf documents and ask questions to a local llm
- send images to vision-capable ollama models
- run a private chatbot interface on docker
- clean chat frontend for locally running language models

## When to choose
- you run Ollama locally and want a polished web chat interface instead of the CLI
- you need document or image attachments in a self-hosted chat UI
- you want a Docker-deployable, privacy-friendly local chatbot frontend

## When to avoid
- you need multi-user accounts, team sharing, or cloud provider integrations beyond Ollama
- you want a backend-agnostic UI supporting OpenAI, Anthropic, and other APIs
- you need model management features like pulling or deleting models from the UI (still on the roadmap)
