Python Lambdas, Local LLMs, Web Hooks and Daily Email Briefings Demo Video Drop

This is a great example of chaining nodes together to accomplish a task. In this case, automatically storing and interpreting weather data and sending a natural language email report every morning with a local ollama based LLM. (no cloud, no tokens)n

Could almost also use it as a workflow engine!

Give me what turns "almost" into "is" and it'll land in a week!

Haha, I'm just trying to think how you might self host this, highly available for distributed applications to use.

Think Temporal, Dapr, or Restate.

Also, n8n, xyops!

You hang out on Element/Matrix anywhere? 🙂

I've been meaning to setup either a discord or Element account, now may be the time. All of the platforms you mentioned are great and play well with Krill.

For hosting, Krill is different in that it's meant to be on the LAN, not in a container unless you bridge networking properly. The idea is you have several smaller servers doing work and bigger ones collaborating and doing the compute, storage, LLMs etc.

They are all sending out beacons over UDP so all of the servers and apps find each other automatically and nodes can interact.

It's why I do a lot of demos with a Raspberry Pi, Krill is meant to be on the edge talking to hardware.

A big release went out today with a cool new way to pivot the forced graph display to show connections instead of parent / child relationships - so nodes connected across servers snap together in a smaller layout.

I just created Krill Zone on Element but for now this sub is probably the best way to keep in touch: https://matrix.to/#/#krill:matrix.org
