These lab guides provide hands-on learning paths for those who want to build their own AI environments from the ground up, whith options that scale affordably: start with completely free tools and resources, progress to intermediate setups, or advance to professiona-grade environments that you can directly apply to real world use cases as your skills and needs grow.\n\nThese labs are community-driven and constantly evolving. Spot an improvement or catch an error? We'd love your contribution via Pull Request, or just reach out to the repository contributors.\n\n## Lab Guides\n\n### Getting Started\n- Text focused labs\n  - [Running your first AI model locally with Ollama](/1_text_labs/ollama_basics/readme.md)\n    - [x] [Mac](/1_text_labs/ollama_basics/ollama_mac.md)\n    - [x] [Windows](/1_text_labs/ollama_basics/ollama_win.md)\n    - [x] [Linux](/1_text_labs/ollama_basics/ollama_lnx.md)\n    - [x] [Create a custom model](/1_text_labs/ollama_basics/custom_model.md)\n  - Running Daniel Miessler's [fabric](https://github.com/danielmiessler/fabric) framework\n    - [x] [Configuring your environment](/1_text_labs/fabric/env_config.md)\n    - [x] [Using existing patterns](/1_text_labs/fabric/existing_patterns.md)\n    - [ ] [Creating your own pattern](/1_text_labs/fabric/custom_patterns.md)\n\n### Next Steps: Adding a GUI and Going Beyond Text\n  - [x] [Open WebUI front end](/1_text_labs/open-webui/README.md)\n    - [x] [Add OpenAI models to your Open WebUI via API key](/1_text_labs/open-webui/02-openai.md)\n    - [x] [Connect a local Ollama instance to your Open WebUI](1_text_labs/open-webui/03-ollama.md)\n    - [x] [Add MCP services to Open WebUI](1_text_labs/open-webui/04-mcpo.md)\n- Audio focused labs\n  - [ ] Transcribe an audio file\n  - [ ] Voice generation\n- Image focused labs\n  - [ ] Diffusion server\n  - [ ] Computer vision model with laptop webcam\n    - [x] [Facial Recognition](3_image_labs/facial_recognition.md)\n    - [ ] [Object Recognition](3_image_labs/object_recognition.md)\n  - [ ] Add object detection to your security camera with Frigate\n\n### Expanding Your Knowledge: Running Agents\n- Agentic focused labs\n  - Agentic platforms\n    - [n8n](4_agentic_labs/n8n/readme.md)\n      - [x] [Installing n8n](4_agentic_labs/n8n/readme.md)\n    - Flowise\n      - [ ] Installing Flowise\n      \n## Community hardware builds\nNeed ideas for what your home lab could look like? Want to confirm compatible parts? Here are labs of our Community members.\n- [Buu Lam](builds/buu_lam.md)\n\n## Raspberri Pi case\nAre you running a lab that uses a Raspberry Pi 5 and it needs a home?\n\nCheck out this design for a case: [pi-case](/pi-case/README.md)\n\n## Additional learning resources\n- F5's solutions offer tremendous value once you have learned how to build AI. Here are some labs that introduce those solutions. [Secure deliver optimize GenAI](https://github.com/f5devcentral/secure-deliver-optimize-genai)\n\n- Here are some [more labs](morelabs.md) we've come across. PR's are welcome!\n\n## Contributors\n\u003ca href=\"https://github.com/f5devcentral/ai-stepbystep/graphs/contributors\"\u003e\n  \u003cimg src=\"https://contrib.rocks/image?repo=f5devcentral/ai-stepbystep\" /\u003e\n\u003c/a\u003e","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ff5devcentral%2Fai-stepbystep","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ff5devcentral%2Fai-stepbystep","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ff5devcentral%2Fai-stepbystep/lists"}
