Tutorials are from our weekly Meetup sessions.
Running OpenClaw Locally with Ollama on Apple Silicon
Set up a fully private, zero-cost AI assistant that never sends a byte off your machine. Covers Ollama installation, model selection, OpenClaw configuration, security hardening after the ClawHavoc supply chain attack, and performance tuning for Apple Silicon. User discretion advised.
Free tutorial, this one's on us.
This event was cancelled due to security concerns with the software involved, but the
research was done and the notes were written. So here they are, free and open. User
discretion is advised. Read the security section before installing anything.
Heads up!
This tutorial was created on 2026-02-24 and everything
was tested and working at that time. Technology moves fast though, and software
updates can break things. No guarantees that every step still works exactly
as written. When in doubt, check the latest docs for the tools involved.
