In this video, I show you how to build a complete website using free local AI coding models running on your own machine. You'll learn how to set up a lean coding harness with the Pi coding agent, run a model like Qwen 3.6 through Ollama, and use a plan driven workflow to ship real software without burning your context window, then deploy the finished site to the web.

About This Video
===========================
In this video, I show you how to build real apps with free local AI coding models using the Pi coding agent, Ollama, and Qwen 3.6. This tutorial is for developers, AI builders, and serious no-code/low-code builders who want practical workflows for building real apps, AI agents, automations, and coding systems.
On this channel, I share practical AI engineering and agentic coding workflows using tools like Claude Code, OpenCode, Codex, Cursor, n8n, Next.js, MCP, local AI models, and modern AI development workflows.
