## Getting Started

### Prerequisites
- [Ollama](https://ollama.com/) installed and running on your machine
- Node.js 20.9+ installed (for development; required by Next.js 16)
- Docker (optional, for containerized deployment)

### Installation

#### Method 1: Docker (Recommended)

1. Using Docker Compose (includes Ollama service):
```bash
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/oslook/ollama-webui/main/docker-compose.yml
docker compose up -d
```

2. Using Docker directly:
```bash
docker run -d -p 3000:3000 ghcr.io/oslook/ollama-webui:latest
```

#### Method 2: Development Setup

1. Clone the repository:
```bash
git clone https://github.com/oslook/ollama-webui.git
cd ollama-webui
```

2. Install dependencies:
```bash
bun install
```

3. Start the development server:
```bash
bun run dev
```

4. Open [http://localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) in your browser

### Usage

1. Ensure your Ollama server is running (default: http://127.0.0.1:11434)
2. Select a model from the dropdown menu
3. Start chatting!

For reasoning models such as DeepSeek R1, use the **Thinking** toggle next to the
message input to show or hide the model's reasoning process. When shown, it appears
in a collapsible block above each answer.

### Configuration

- Click the settings icon (⚙️) to:
  - Configure Ollama server URL
  - Export chat history
  - Import chat history

### Deploying on the internet (CORS)

The browser talks to Ollama directly, so when this app is hosted on a public
domain the Ollama server must allow cross-origin requests. On the Ollama host set:

```bash
OLLAMA_HOST=0.0.0.0
OLLAMA_ORIGINS=*
```

then restart Ollama. Note that an HTTPS site cannot reach an `http://` Ollama URL
(mixed content) — serve Ollama over HTTPS or put it behind a reverse proxy. See the
[Ollama FAQ](https://docs.ollama.com/faq#how-can-i-allow-additional-web-origins-to-access-ollama)
for details.
