X Bookmarks — 2025 KW22: Vexa goes fully local

@GithubProjects — Vexa: local meeting transcription, no GPU required

Your Meetings. Your Machine. Vexa now runs locally — no GPU, no cloud. Fully self-hosted on your laptop's CPU.

Transcribe Google Meet in real-time with full privacy.

Open-source and production-ready.

Smart, because the usual pitch for local transcription tools comes with a VRAM requirement that kills the deal for anyone without a dedicated GPU. Running Whisper-class transcription on CPU fast enough for real-time Google Meet is the harder problem — and if they've actually shipped that, this is worth cloning. "Production-ready" is a claim I'd stress-test, but the privacy angle alone makes it worth evaluating.


@ilyvil1 — Hero section speed-build

How long did it take to make this hero section?

Can you guess?

Honestly just saved this one to see the answer. Speed-building UI that looks polished is its own skill set, and the replies usually turn into a decent thread about tooling and workflow shortcuts worth skimming.
