Llama-Recipes Quickstart

If you are new to developing with Meta Llama models, this is where you should start. This folder contains introductory-level notebooks across different techniques relating to Meta Llama.

• The Running_Llama3_Anywhere notebooks demonstrate how to run Llama inference across Linux, Mac and Windows platforms using the appropriate tooling.
• The Prompt_Engineering_with_Llama_3 notebook showcases the various ways to elicit appropriate outputs from Llama. Take this notebook for a spin to get a feel for how Llama responds to different inputs and generation parameters.
• The inference folder contains scripts to deploy Llama for inference on server and mobile. See also 3p_integrations/vllm and 3p_integrations/tgi for hosting Llama on open-source model servers.
• The RAG folder contains a simple Retrieval-Augmented Generation application using Llama 3.
• The finetuning folder contains resources to help you finetune Llama 3 on your custom datasets, for both single- and multi-GPU setups. The scripts use the native llama-recipes finetuning code found in finetuning.py which supports these features:
