Qwen3
The open Qwen3 model family from Alibaba, from small to large, with reasoning modes. The README collects run examples for Transformers, llama.cpp and Ollama.
Who it is for
For people looking for a strong open model, including for local use.
How to start
- Run through Ollama:
ollama serve, thenollama run qwen3:8b. - Or through Transformers using the code in the Run Qwen3 section.
- For llama.cpp take the ready command with
llama-cli -hf Qwen/Qwen3-8B-GGUF:Q8_0from the README.
Steps are taken from the README. Check the current version in the repository before running them.

The core library for working with models: one codebase for text, vision, audio and multimodal tasks, for both inference and training. Most new open models ship through it.
A self-hosted ChatGPT-style interface that connects to Ollama and any OpenAI-compatible API. Installs with a single Docker command and runs on your own server.
A C/C++ engine that runs language models on ordinary hardware: laptops, phones, GPU-less servers. Much of local AI, Ollama included, is built on it.
Repository of the large open DeepSeek-V3 mixture-of-experts model: description, benchmark results and run instructions. It showed an open model can stand next to closed ones.
The foundation under most modern neural networks: GPU-accelerated tensors and automatic differentiation, wrapped in ordinary Python. Transformers, Llama and nearly every open model are written on it.
