Ollama Download

I use Ollama because it lets me run powerful open-source models locally, and the big win here is the Anthropic API compatibility. That’s the bridge that makes it possible to power Claude Code with local models and avoid paid API usage.

Pros

+Runs open-source LLMs locally on your machine
+Anthropic API compatibility enables Claude Code integration
+Simple install and straightforward model run commands

Cons

-Model quality can vary compared to official Claude models
-Requires enough GPU/VRAM for larger models and big context windows
