Why we included this project
Nanocoder is a coding agent that runs in your terminal with whatever model you choose. It works with a local Ollama install or any OpenAI-compatible API like OpenRouter, Anthropic, or Google, so you are not tied to one vendor's toolchain. The project is run by a community collective instead of a company, and the useful features are not locked behind paid tiers. Your code stays on your machine unless you decide to send it to a provider, which is the main draw for developers and small teams who care about data ownership. Setup is a single npm install, with Homebrew and Nix options too, and you never need an account or telemetry.
