🔌 AI Integration

AI Notepad uses Ollama to run local AI models. By default, it uses the Gemma 3:1b model, which provides a good balance between performance and quality.

Changing the AI Model

Edit ai.py to use a different model:

response = ollama.generate(
    model="your-model-name",  # Change this line
    prompt=prompt,
    stream=False,
    system="..."
)

Popular alternatives:

• llama2:7b - Meta's Llama 2
• mistral:7b - Mistral AI model
• codellama:7b - Code-focused model

🎨 Themes

Switch between light and dark themes through the settings (⚙ button):

• Light Theme: Clean, bright interface
• Dark Theme: Easy on the eyes for extended writing sessions

💾 Session Management

AI Notepad automatically saves your session:

• Tab state: All open tabs are restored on restart
• Unsaved content: Preserved even if files aren't saved
• File paths: Quick access to your documents

Session data is stored in:

• Windows: %LOCALAPPDATA%\NotepadAI\
• Linux/Mac: ~/.local/share/notepad-ai/
