This project uses mise to manage required tools (Node.js, pnpm, Rust). If you haven't installed mise yet:

# Install mise (macOS/Linux)
curl https://mise.run | sh

Then clone and get developing:

# Clone the repo
git clone https://github.com/szilarddoro/allein.git
cd allein

# Install tools (versions from mise.toml)
mise install

# Install project dependencies
pnpm install

# Start dev server with hot reload
pnpm tauri dev

# Build native executable for your platform
pnpm tauri build

Allein integrates with Ollama to bring AI writing assistance directly into your editor. Everything runs locally—your writing never leaves your machine.

First, install and start Ollama on your machine:

1. Install Ollama

   # macOS
   brew install ollama
   
   # or download from ollama.ai for Windows/Linux

2. Start Ollama server

   ollama serve

You can download and configure models in two ways:

Simply start Allein and go through the onboarding flow—the app will guide you through downloading and configuring models directly in the UI.

Download the recommended models for different features:

# For smart auto-completion suggestions
ollama pull codellama:7b-code

# For text improvement features
ollama pull gemma3:latest

Then configure them in Allein settings. The app will auto-detect your Ollama server at http://localhost:11434 (or you can customize the URL if your server is running on a different host/port).

That's it. You now have AI-powered writing suggestions running entirely on your computer.
