When NOT to use ollama-python
Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.
- If your setup does not support or require the integration of Python with Ollama
- In projects that require direct model hosting without external services like Ollama
- If you prefer using competitive libraries that offer more control over local processing
