Kazura

The beautiful, minimalist, lightning-fast desktop chat UI for Ollama.

No browser tabs. No bloat. Just you and your local LLM — with a UI that actually feels good to use.

✨ Features

• 🎨 Gorgeous native-feeling window (Electron + React + TypeScript)
• 📜 Perfect auto-scroll & auto-growing input
• ⚡ Quick actions from any app:
  • Cmd+Shift+L → "Explain the selected code"
  • Cmd+Shift+R → "Refactor this code to be cleaner and faster"
• 🔒 100% offline — talks directly to Ollama
• 🪶 Tiny bundle, instant startup
• 🛡️ Works even if Ollama isn't running (shows helpful message)

📦 Installation

npm create kazura@latest

That's it. It downloads the app for your platform and puts the executable in the current folder.

Requires Ollama running locally: https://ollama.com

⌨️ Keyboard Shortcuts

🛠️ Development

git clone https://github.com/ressut/kazura.git
cd kazura
npm install
npm run app    # launches dev mode with hot reload

Build for production

npm run build:app       # builds for current platform
npm run build:win       # builds for Windows
npm run build:mac       # builds for macOS

🤔 Why Kazura?

Because every other Ollama GUI is either:

• A bloated web wrapper
• Ugly as sin
• Missing basic UX niceties (scrolling, textarea grow, loading states…)

Kazura is the one I actually want to use every day.
