LlamaFactory
A unified framework for fine-tuning 100+ models with no code: through a config-driven CLI or the LLaMA Board web UI. Supports LoRA and other methods.
Who it is for
For people who want to fine-tune many different models with one tool without rewriting code.
How to start
- Clone and install:
git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/hiyouga/LlamaFactory.git, thenpip install -e .. - Launch the web UI:
llamafactory-cli webui. - Or train from a ready config:
llamafactory-cli train examples/train_lora/qwen3_lora_sft.yaml.
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.
