## Choose when

### Choose OfflineLLM if…

- OfflineLLM is primarily Kotlin; llama2-webui is Jupyter Notebook.
- License: OfflineLLM is Other, llama2-webui is MIT.
- Tags unique to OfflineLLM: android, local-llm, on-device-ai, privacy-first-ai.
- Need a privacy-first solution that operates fully offline

### Choose llama2-webui if…

- llama2-webui is primarily Jupyter Notebook; OfflineLLM is Kotlin.
- License: llama2-webui is MIT, OfflineLLM is Other.
- Requirements: - Ensure you have access to Llama 2 models before proceeding.; - Requires a Python environment capable of running Jupyter Notebooks along with the specified dependencies such as Gradio..
- Tags unique to llama2-webui: gradio, llama-2, local-inference.
- - When you want to run Llama 2 models locally with minimal setup across various operating systems like Linux, Windows, and Mac.

## When NOT to use OfflineLLM

- Seeking real-time updates or cloud-based AI services
- Prioritize integration with web-based features or platforms
- Running x86 architecture, as the tool is optimised for ARM
