Midzimu: Keeping Family Stories Close with Local AI
Описание и применение
Midzimu – это офлайн‑первый архив семейных историй, который хранит данные в браузере и позволяет использовать локальный AI через Ollama для создания резюме, тем и перевода, сохраняя контроль над личными данными.
Задача
Families need a way to preserve oral histories, recordings, and traditions locally without relying on cloud services or mandatory AI integration.
Результат
Midzimu provides a fully local, offline‑first archive for family stories, with optional AI features that run on a user‑controlled Ollama instance, ensuring data privacy and control.

- Use the AI helper to draft summaries, suggest themes, or translate transcripts
- Back up or restore data via the app’s backup feature
Доказательства
Midzimu is an offline-first family oral-history archive for preserving memories, proverbs, traditional practices, recipes, and the words elders choose to share.
The optional AI helper sends a transcript to an Ollama server at the address the user configures. It can draft a summary, suggest themes, and translate into a chosen language.
Story text and recordings are stored in the browser's IndexedDB. A service worker caches the app shell for offline visits after the first load.
With Ollama running locally, the story text stays on the user's device; a remote Ollama address would receive it, so users should only configure an endpoint they trust.
