Install Ollama (the local model runner) 安装 Ollama(本地模型运行器)
Run the one-line installer below. Ollama handles downloading and running open-source LLMs like Llama 3.2, Mistral, and Gemma locally. 运行以下一行安装命令。Ollama 负责下载并在本地运行 Llama 3.2、Mistral、Gemma 等开源大模型。
Pull a language model 拉取语言模型
Llama 3.2 is recommended for first-time users — it runs on 8GB RAM and provides excellent general chat quality. The download is ~2GB. 推荐新用户使用 Llama 3.2——8GB 内存即可运行,通用聊天质量优秀。下载大小约 2GB。
Run Open WebUI with Docker 用 Docker 运行 Open WebUI
The command below starts Open WebUI on port 3000. The --add-host flag allows the container to reach Ollama running on your host machine.
以下命令在 3000 端口启动 Open WebUI。--add-host 参数让容器能访问宿主机上的 Ollama 服务。
Open your browser and start chatting 打开浏览器,开始对话
Navigate to http://localhost:3000. Create an admin account on first launch, select your model from the dropdown, and start chatting privately.

--add-host=host.docker.internal:host-gateway \
-v open-webui:/app/backend/data \
--name open-webui \
--restart always \
ghcr.io/open-webui/open-webui:main
# Step 5: Open browser
# Visit: http://localhost:3000
"Open WebUI has become the de facto standard UI for local LLMs. In our testing, the installation-to-first-chat time is genuinely under 5 minutes if you already have Docker. The interface is polished enough that non-technical users can navigate it comfortably — something most open-source tools sacrifice for power-user features."
