LLM Development

Hi, I’m looking to self‑host a Claude‑like assistant (“Open Claude”) on my laptop (local setup) and on a Linux VPS.
I need help to:
– Pick the right open‑source Claude‑style project (e.g., OpenClaudeCode / Open‑Claude‑Cowork or similar)
– Install and configure it on my laptop
– Containerize and deploy it on my VPS (with proper security and monitoring)
– Document how I can update models/configs myself
My stack: [mention OS, RAM, GPU if any, VPS provider/specs].
Please share:
– 1–2 similar LLM/self‑host deployments you’ve done
– Your suggested approach and rough time estimate
– Your hourly rate or fixed price for this setup.
