How to Use Bolt.new for FREE with Local LLMs (And NO Rate Limits)

Over the last month, together as a community we started oTToDev, a fork of Bolt.new that aims to add a bunch of much needed functionality like being able to use any LLM you want, including local ones with Ollama.

In this video I give some super important tips and tricks for using local LLMs with oTToDev, some of which can really apply to using any LLM with any AI coding assistant! I also cover my favorite open source LLM to use for coding my AI apps.

Everything I cover in this video I'll be going into more detail in my YouTube livestream I'll be doing this Sunday, November 10th, at 7:00 PM CDT! See you there! Here is the link for that for you to enable notifications for it when I go live:

As I mentioned in the video, I collabed with FlexiSpot for a small segment of this video because having an ergonomically correct chair is super important for me since I've dealt with sciatica in the past (seriously not fun), so I wanted to share with all of you, especially if you're a developer sitting a lot like me!

Use my exclusive code 'C750'. If you purchase the C7/C7Max now, you'll get a $50 discount. It's the best time to buy the C7 (or C7Max)!

Artificial Intelligence is no doubt the future of not just software development but the whole world. And I'm on a mission to master it - focusing first on mastering AI Agents.

Join me as I push the limits of what is possible with AI. I'll be uploading videos at least two times a week - Sundays and Wednesdays at 7:00 PM CDT! Sundays and Wednesdays are for everything AI, focusing on providing insane and practical educational value. I will also post sometimes on Fridays at 7:00 PM CDT - specifically for platform showcases - sometimes sponsored, always creative in approach!
