Kivarro: A New Open-Source Rust/Tauri 'Command Center' for Local LLM Inference

GitHub (r/LocalLLaMA)·low signal

Trending on r/LocalLLaMA this week, Kivarro (AKMessi/kivarro) is a cross-platform Tauri v2 + SvelteKit desktop app that wraps llama.cpp and mistral.rs behind a dense instrumentation-style UI — model registry, hardware-fit, GGUF metadata indexing, live NVIDIA VRAM telemetry, RAG bases, and a local OpenAI-compatible API. It's early (baseline shell, single-maintainer) but notable as a design-forward alternative to the usual local-inference UIs. For anyone running GGUF models locally, it's a fresh option to watch.
