My app is nothing compared to the features Open WebUI. I just wanted to make a simple native app. Honestly, I made this just because I wanted to see if I can make something like that.

Also, Open WebUI is slightly complex for someone who is not into self-hosting. My app is for someone who just installs Ollama on their laptop or any computer and has exposed it to on the local network.

That’s odd. I did test it on Mint.

Can you run it via a terminal and tell me if it shows any errors?

I have used an old MacBook Air as a home server with Fedora for about 2 years. Fedora with Podman can be great, especially when you can use Cockpit (a GUI for managing containers), which is pre-installed and perfectly integrated.

Another option is to use TrueNAS. I can also recommend OpenMediaVault.

For exposing your services on the internet I suggest caution. If your ISP does not let you forward your ports, you can read this. https://blog.aiquiral.me/bypass-cgnat
