Show HN: QVAC SDK, a universal JavaScript SDK for building local AI applications
Hi folks, today we're launching QVAC SDK [0], a universal JavaScript/TypeScript SDK for building local AI applications across desktop and mobile. The project is fully open source under the Apache 2.0 license. Our goal is to make it easier for developers to build useful local-first AI apps without having to stitch together a lot of different engines, runtimes, and platform-specific integrations. Under the hood, the SDK is built on top of QVAC Fabric [1], our cross-platform inference and fine-tuning engine. QVAC SDK uses Bare [2], a lightweight cross-platform JavaScript runtime that is part of the Pear ecosystem [3]. It can be used as a worker pretty much anywhere, with built-in tooling for Node, Bun and React Native (Hermes). A few things it supports today: - Local inference across desktop, mobile and servers - Support for LLMs, OCR, translation, transcription, text-to-speech, and vision models - Peer-to-peer model distribution over the Holepunch stack [4], in a way that is similar to B
