LobeChat
Feature-rich open chat UI — ~83k stars, repo moved, license unclear.
About
LobeChat (lobehub/lobehub, ~83k stars) is the feature-rich open chat framework: multi-model, plugins, TTS/STT, and a polished UI.
Two caveats, stated plainly: the repo moved from lobehub/lobe-chat to lobehub/lobehub, and no license file is detected — verify licensing before commercial use. Otherwise one of the most capable open chat UIs.
