+## What it is
+
+LM Studio is a desktop app for running AI language models locally. You browse and download open models such as Llama, Qwen, Gemma or Mistral from inside the app, then chat with them in a window, with no account and no data sent to a cloud service.
+
+It can also serve a loaded model over a local API that's compatible with OpenAI's, so other apps and scripts on your computer can use it in place of an online provider.
+
+## Why it's here
+
+- **Local and private.** Models run on your hardware, and your prompts stay on your computer.
+- **A model catalog built in.** It shows which versions of a model will fit your memory.
+- **A local server.** Point developer tools at it to test against a model without paying per request.
+
+## On CoreDesktop
+
+LM Studio is installed from Flathub. Open it from the app menu. Larger models need plenty of memory and run best with a capable GPU. `update` keeps LM Studio current with the rest of the Flatpaks.
