## What it is
MusicGPT is a Rust application that runs music generation AI models (currently Meta's MusicGen) locally, generating music from natural language prompts. It offers both a chat-like web UI and a CLI mode, with no Python or ML framework dependencies required.

## Use cases
- generate music from a text prompt
- run musicgen locally without python
- create background music tracks with ai
- text-to-music generation on my machine
- generate audio samples from descriptions
- run music generation models on gpu with docker

## When to choose
- you want local, offline music generation without heavy ML dependencies
- you need a simple CLI or web UI for text-to-music
- you want CUDA GPU acceleration via Docker

## When to avoid
- you need melody-conditioned or infinite-length generation (not yet supported)
- you want cloud-hosted or API-based music generation
- you need models other than MusicGen

## Facets
- artifact type: application
