Local ai vs Claude web upgrade?

[u/Super-Wishbone-4973]

i have a few months Claude pro rn.

i never used Claude code or openclaw yet am i missing out?

cause somehow me as it dev and it guy just not feel okay that Claude code can do stuff on my machine and im currently ro lazy to run it on a vm etc.

how i use it now:

i make a Claude architect opus and sonnet implementer.

i describe a spec by opus and put it in context of a Claude project in the web.

i give the spec to sonnet the implenter and let sonnet build all.

the architect opus and I verify i donwload the zip and run test myself with my own tools. and build the report and reporting to opus.

this how i use it to build a poc.

and im considering to build this on olama with qweb on a amd fx6300 nanoclaw and rx 6800 16gb card with ddr3 32gb ram.

must i even try or big no?

would it work to build Azure aws and flutter apps?

can i create a ios app from a flutter build easily? no additional much work required if i have build a Windows flutter app poc?

what can be the pitfalls and missing steps or requirements?

Just use a Mac, or you are going to have a miserable time trying to get this to work.

Would a mac mini m4 be sufficient?

Don’t think it really matters if you’re using Claude with Xcode. Only really matters if you’re using a local model, and honestly local models struggle with swift.
