Junco is an on-device AI coding agent for Swift that runs locally using Apple Intelligence or Ollama models, eliminating cloud dependencies and API keys. It's interesting because it leverages Apple's private on-device ML frameworks to provide a privacy-focused, offline-capable coding assistant specifically tailored for Apple platform development.
