LightningBoost: Cloud-based RAM optimization tool to reduce lag and boost performance without hardware upgrades. Supercharges low-RAM laptops by intelligently offloading heavy AI tasks to AMD Cloud GPUs. It provides a real-time system monitor using psutil, delivers AI-powered optimization tips via LangChain, and automatically routes demanding workloads to powerful AMD Instinct MI300X accelerators. The project features a Flask backend API, a Streamlit dashboard, and complete Docker orchestration. Built with ROCm and HuggingFace TGI, LightningBoost demonstrates a seamless hybrid architecture where edge devices can leverage cloud supercomputing. Perfect for students, developers, and hackathon participants, it transforms modest laptops into workstations without lag. Join MeowMission on our journey "From Meows to the Moon!
