Thanks for taking a look at Blitztext Linux.
This repository is an experimental Linux desktop app. Contributions should make it easier to learn from, build, fork, or safely extend.

- add tests around parsing or quality filters
- document local model experiments
- simplify setup
Please include:

- Avoid adding telemetry, hosted services, or external dependencies without a clear issue first.
- Call out privacy-impacting changes in the pull request description.
- Keep the preview honest: do not describe remote OpenAI workflows as offline or local.
This project currently does not include:
- other platforms
- a hosted backend
- packaged releases
- bundled local model files
- local text rewriting
Those can be discussed in issues, but please keep PRs focused on the current Linux scope unless a maintainer agrees on a larger direction first.
