If you don't care about the electron app and just want the API, you can `go generate ./... && go build && ./ollama serve` and you're off to the races. No installation needed.
I made my web interface before I'd even heard of Ollama, and because I wanted a PAYG interface for GPT-4.
You also don't need to actually install my web UI, as it runs from the github page and the endpoint and API key are both configurable by the user during a chat session.
Also (a) the ollama command line interface is good enough for what I actually want, (b) my actual problem was not realising I'd only installed the python and not the underlying model.
