The easiest way to run an open model on your own machine: one command downloads and starts it, plus a local REST API and libraries for Python and JavaScript.
Open models & inferenceggml-org
ggml
A small tensor library in plain C/C++ with no dependencies. It underpins llama.cpp and whisper.cpp and runs quantized models on CPU, GPU and in the browser.
Who it is for
For C/C++ developers embedding models into their own apps.
How to start
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/ggml-org/ggml. - Build it:
mkdir build && cd build && cmake .. && cmake --build . --config Release -j 8. - Study the minimal matrix-multiplication example in
examples/simple.
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.
