Thanks to make this open source! Doesn't seem to have any AI enabled search feature does it? Honestly I think you gave up too early, there are solid foundations in the app but definitely needs some more polishing for practical use. I managed to build it on my mac. npm install, npm run tauri build. What is your workflow to add features / debug?

I feel I gave up early too but oh well, I sat on it for too long. I hope somebody else can make something good out of it!

Once I had a more reliable foundation, I planned on adding a tiny LLM that can run locally and parse user’s natural queries in a manner that the app can understand.

I didn’t really have a workflow to do anything since I am not a professional developer. I would just hack around in a dev branch, merge it with main and create a build when I was happy with it.

You can probably get a long way by just adding vector search without llm (if you haven't done this already)
