How niharika2309/getting-started-with-lm-studio works
The README describes LM Studio as a desktop application for finding, downloading, loading, and chatting with local models, plus a local API server for programmatic use. The diagram follows those documented user and request flows; this repository contains no source excerpts, so the graph reflects documented architecture rather than verified implementation details.
