That's a lot of work to get it running. I need to see more examples of how it's useful before I go to the trouble.

we have some examples on our website https://www.trynyro.com/. thanks for the feedback we will definitely make the launching process easier.

Don't understand why you're calling it "for your OS". It just looks like an electron app? Why is it better than a web UI or native mac apps offered by OpenAI etc?

Btw I made something similar a while ago, https://progpt.nmn.gl/. One interface to chat with multiple models. I'm going to open source it soon.

i don't want to knock your work or the effort you put in but is this just an alternative web frontend for chatgpt running in an electron app or am i missing something? if not, can it really be called an open-source ai assistant for your OS?

ak89004• 2 years ago

nope, your totally right. this is an initial launch for us and we have a lot planned :)

This wouldn't be widely considered open source since your license puts limitations on use & distribution [1].

The video shows an electron app starting and the window being resized, and that’s it? Other than docking and a 1% Ui change how does this compare to just having a browser tab open?

I think it needs to focus on its audience better - you’re expected to be technical enough to use npm to get it working, but the feature lists are vague headlines with no technical details.

If you’re targeting end users then you need to be distributing binaries for all platforms, if you’re targeting technical power users/devs we want details and comparisons!

I definitely agree with you, thanks for the the feedback. We have a lot of improvements and features planned, this was to gauge interest and find contributors.

not sure I need this, however if, as others mentioned you've bolted a few things together (No shade! thats Great) -- Why not bolt-also 'Everything' [0] search / WinDirStat [1] type capability into [thing].

Everythign is fantastic search indexer agent for local that has preview, https://i.imgur.com/hr3V5x7.png
