ChatGPT-style web frontend for your local models, for obacht Macs. The UI runs as a container inside the obacht VM and talks to Ollama running on the Mac HOST (install the "Ollama (Mac · Host)" template first) over the VM's host gateway — so the model runner gets full Apple-Silicon GPU acceleration while the web app stays sandboxed in the VM.
Notes
Bind a domain to this instance to reach the UI; pull and switch models from inside Open WebUI.
Mac-only: the Raspberry Pi has its own all-in-Docker ollama-openwebui bundle instead.
Open-source contribution
A fixed amount per install goes to Open WebUI, forwarded via GitHub Sponsors.
