The v13 release is not just a release either, it is also our official announcement of participation in the annual #hacktoberfest. 💻🥨
We know that we're a few days late to the party, but v13 had to get ready before. 😉
This year, the fest is opt-in for projects and we definitely want to opt into taking part in this great event! If you ever thought about starting coding or giving back to your favourite open source repositories, now is the time! Head over to the hacktoberfest website to learn more about it.
We already prepared some issues on our repositories and aim towards opening more issues for starters, but feel free to begin a hunt for improvements and fixes by yourself!

Epicenter is a free, open-source set of local-first apps that let you own and control your data by storing everything—notes, transcripts, chats—in one simple folder using plain text and SQLite. You can use any AI model you want, customize tools, and access your data anywhere without relying on cloud services. Key apps include Whispering, which transcribes your speech locally, and epicenter.sh, a personal assistant that helps you search and interact with your data. This setup gives you privacy, flexibility, and full control over your information, avoiding locked, siloed apps and data traps. It’s great for anyone who values data ownership and open software.

Chat UI is an open-source chat interface built with SvelteKit that lets you easily connect to different AI language models using any service that works with the OpenAI API format, such as Hugging Face, llama.cpp, Ollama, or OpenRouter[5]. You can quickly set it up on your computer by cloning the project, setting a few environment variables (like your API key and database connection), and running simple commands to start the app—no need to be an expert[5]. The main benefit is that you get a modern, customizable chat app that works with many AI models, making it simple to experiment, build, and share your own AI-powered chat experiences without starting from scratch.
