- Building a website can be done in 10 simple steps:
-Step 1: Find the right website platform.
-Step 2: Choose your domain name and hosting plan.
-Step 3: Design your website layout.
-Step 4: Write your website content and add images.
-Step 5: Install security features to protect your site from hackers or spammers
-Step 6: Test your website on multiple browsers, mobile devices, operating systems etc…
-Step 7: Test it again with people who are not related to you personally – friends or family members will work just fine!
-Step 8: Start marketing and promoting the website via social media channels or paid ads
-Step 9: Analyze how many visitors have come to your site so far, what type of people visit more often than others (e.g., men vs women) etc…
-Step 10: Continue to improve upon all aspects mentioned above by following trends in web design and staying up-to-date on new technologies that can enhance user experience even further!
-How does a Website Work?
-A website works by having pages, which are made of HTML code. This code tells your computer how to display the content on each page you visit – whether it’s an image or text file (like PDFs). In order for someone else’s browser not only be able but also want those same results when accessing any given URL; some additional steps need taken by way of programming scripts that will add functionality such as making links clickable!
-The most common type is called static HTML pages because they remain unchanged over time unless modified manually (either through editing files directly or using an interface such as WordPress). They are usually served up via HTTP protocols – this means anyone can access them without having any special privileges like being part of a group who is allowed into restricted areas online; however, there may still exist some limitations depending upon where one lives geographically speaking.

-## Usage
-
-Here are the end-to-end binary build and model conversion steps for most supported models.
-
-### Basic usage
-
-Firstly, you need to get the binary. There are different methods that you can follow:
- Method 1: Clone this repository and build locally, see [how to build](./docs/build.md)
- Method 2: If you are using MacOS or Linux, you can install llama.cpp via [brew, flox or nix](./docs/install.md)
- Method 3: Use a Docker image, see [documentation for Docker](./docs/docker.md)
- Method 4: Download pre-built binary from [releases](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/releases)
-
-You can run a basic completion using this command:
-
-```bash
-llama-cli -m your_model.gguf -p "I believe the meaning of life is" -n 128
-
-# Output:
-# I believe the meaning of life is to find your own truth and to live in accordance with it. For me, this means being true to myself and following my passions, even if they don't align with societal expectations. I think that's what I love about yoga – it's not just a physical practice, but a spiritual one too. It's about connecting with yourself, listening to your inner voice, and honoring your own unique journey.
-```
-
-See [this page](./examples/main/README.md) for a full list of parameters.
-
-### Conversation mode
-
-If you want a more ChatGPT-like experience, you can run in conversation mode by passing `-cnv` as a parameter:
-
-```bash
-llama-cli -m your_model.gguf -p "You are a helpful assistant" -cnv
-
-# Output:
-# > hi, who are you?
-# Hi there! I'm your helpful assistant! I'm an AI-powered chatbot designed to assist and provide information to users like you. I'm here to help answer your questions, provide guidance, and offer support on a wide range of topics. I'm a friendly and knowledgeable AI, and I'm always happy to help with anything you need. What's on your mind, and how can I assist you today?
-#
-# > what is 1+1?
-# Easy peasy! The answer to 1+1 is... 2!
-```
-
-By default, the chat template will be taken from the input model. If you want to use another chat template, pass `--chat-template NAME` as a parameter. See the list of [supported templates](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/wiki/Templates-supported-by-llama_chat_apply_template)
-
-```bash
-./llama-cli -m your_model.gguf -p "You are a helpful assistant" -cnv --chat-template chatml
-```
-
-You can also use your own template via in-prefix, in-suffix and reverse-prompt parameters:
-
-```bash
-./llama-cli -m your_model.gguf -p "You are a helpful assistant" -cnv --in-prefix 'User: ' --reverse-prompt 'User:'
-```
-
-### Web server
-
-[llama.cpp web server](./examples/server/README.md) is a lightweight [OpenAI API](https://github.com/openai/openai-openapi) compatible HTTP server that can be used to serve local models and easily connect them to existing clients.
-
-Example usage:
-
-```bash
-./llama-server -m your_model.gguf --port 8080
-
-# Basic web UI can be accessed via browser: http://localhost:8080
-# Chat completion endpoint: http://localhost:8080/v1/chat/completions
-```
-
-### Interactive mode
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> If you prefer basic usage, please consider using conversation mode instead of interactive mode
-
-In this mode, you can always interrupt generation by pressing Ctrl+C and entering one or more lines of text, which will be converted into tokens and appended to the current context. You can also specify a *reverse prompt* with the parameter `-r "reverse prompt string"`. This will result in user input being prompted whenever the exact tokens of the reverse prompt string are encountered in the generation. A typical use is to use a prompt that makes LLaMA emulate a chat between multiple users, say Alice and Bob, and pass `-r "Alice:"`.
-
-Here is an example of a few-shot interaction, invoked with the command
-
-```bash
-# default arguments using a 7B model
-./examples/chat.sh
-
-# advanced chat with a 13B model
-./examples/chat-13B.sh
-
-# custom arguments using a 13B model
-./llama-cli -m ./models/13B/ggml-model-q4_0.gguf -n 256 --repeat_penalty 1.0 --color -i -r "User:" -f prompts/chat-with-bob.txt
-```
-
-Note the use of `--color` to distinguish between user input and generated text. Other parameters are explained in more detail in the [README](examples/main/README.md) for the `llama-cli` example program.
-
-![image](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/1991296/224575029-2af3c7dc-5a65-4f64-a6bb-517a532aea38.png)
-
-### Persistent Interaction
-
-The prompt, user inputs, and model generations can be saved and resumed across calls to `./llama-cli` by leveraging `--prompt-cache` and `--prompt-cache-all`. The `./examples/chat-persistent.sh` script demonstrates this with support for long-running, resumable chat sessions. To use this example, you must provide a file to cache the initial chat prompt and a directory to save the chat session, and may optionally provide the same variables as `chat-13B.sh`. The same prompt cache can be reused for new chat sessions. Note that both prompt cache and chat directory are tied to the initial prompt (`PROMPT_TEMPLATE`) and the model file.
-
-```bash
-# Start a new chat
-PROMPT_CACHE_FILE=chat.prompt.bin CHAT_SAVE_DIR=./chat/default ./examples/chat-persistent.sh
-
-# Resume that chat
-PROMPT_CACHE_FILE=chat.prompt.bin CHAT_SAVE_DIR=./chat/default ./examples/chat-persistent.sh
-
-# Start a different chat with the same prompt/model
-PROMPT_CACHE_FILE=chat.prompt.bin CHAT_SAVE_DIR=./chat/another ./examples/chat-persistent.sh
-
-# Different prompt cache for different prompt/model
-PROMPT_TEMPLATE=./prompts/chat-with-bob.txt PROMPT_CACHE_FILE=bob.prompt.bin \
-    CHAT_SAVE_DIR=./chat/bob ./examples/chat-persistent.sh
-```
-
-### Constrained output with grammars
-
-`llama.cpp` supports grammars to constrain model output. For example, you can force the model to output JSON only:
-
-```bash
-./llama-cli -m ./models/13B/ggml-model-q4_0.gguf -n 256 --grammar-file grammars/json.gbnf -p 'Request: schedule a call at 8pm; Command:'
-```
-
-The `grammars/` folder contains a handful of sample grammars. To write your own, check out the [GBNF Guide](./grammars/README.md).
-
-For authoring more complex JSON grammars, you can also check out https://grammar.intrinsiclabs.ai/, a browser app that lets you write TypeScript interfaces which it compiles to GBNF grammars that you can save for local use. Note that the app is built and maintained by members of the community, please file any issues or FRs on [its repo](http://github.com/intrinsiclabsai/gbnfgen) and not this one.

-## Tools
+## Building the project

-### Prepare and Quantize
+The main product of this project is the `llama` library. Its C-style interface can be found in [include/llama.h](include/llama.h).
+The project also includes many example programs and tools using the `llama` library. The examples range from simple, minimal code snippets to sophisticated sub-projects such as an OpenAI-compatible HTTP server. Possible methods for obtaining the binaries:

-> [!NOTE]
-> You can use the [GGUF-my-repo](https://huggingface.co/spaces/ggml-org/gguf-my-repo) space on Hugging Face to quantise your model weights without any setup too. It is synced from `llama.cpp` main every 6 hours.
+- Clone this repository and build locally, see [how to build](docs/build.md)
+- On MacOS or Linux, install `llama.cpp` via [brew, flox or nix](docs/install.md)
+- Use a Docker image, see [documentation for Docker](docs/docker.md)
+- Download pre-built binaries from [releases](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/releases)

-To obtain the official LLaMA 2 weights please see the <a href="#obtaining-and-using-the-facebook-llama-2-model">Obtaining and using the Facebook LLaMA 2 model</a> section. There is also a large selection of pre-quantized `gguf` models available on Hugging Face.
+## Obtaining and quantizing models

-Note: `convert.py` has been moved to `examples/convert_legacy_llama.py` and shouldn't be used for anything other than `Llama/Llama2/Mistral` models and their derivatives.
-It does not support LLaMA 3, you can use `convert_hf_to_gguf.py` with LLaMA 3 downloaded from Hugging Face.
+The [Hugging Face](https://huggingface.co) platform hosts a [number of LLMs](https://huggingface.co/models?library=gguf&sort=trending) compatible with `llama.cpp`:

-To learn more about quantizing model, [read this documentation](./examples/quantize/README.md)
+- [Trending](https://huggingface.co/models?library=gguf&sort=trending)
+- [LLaMA](https://huggingface.co/models?sort=trending&search=llama+gguf)

-### Perplexity (measuring model quality)
+After downloading a model, use the CLI tools to run it locally - see below.

-You can use the `perplexity` example to measure perplexity over a given prompt (lower perplexity is better).
-For more information, see [https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/perplexity](https://huggingface.co/docs/transformers/perplexity).
+`llama.cpp` requires the model to be stored in the [GGUF](https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml/blob/master/docs/gguf.md) file format. Models in other data formats can be converted to GGUF using the `convert_*.py` Python scripts in this repo.
+
+The Hugging Face platform provides a variety of online tools for converting, quantizing and hosting models with `llama.cpp`:
+
+- Use the [GGUF-my-repo space](https://huggingface.co/spaces/ggml-org/gguf-my-repo) to convert to GGUF format and quantize model weights to smaller sizes
+- Use the [GGUF-my-LoRA space](https://huggingface.co/spaces/ggml-org/gguf-my-lora) to convert LoRA adapters to GGUF format (more info: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/discussions/10123)
+- Use the [GGUF-editor space](https://huggingface.co/spaces/CISCai/gguf-editor) to edit GGUF meta data in the browser (more info: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/discussions/9268)
+- Use the [Inference Endpoints](https://ui.endpoints.huggingface.co/) to directly host `llama.cpp` in the cloud (more info: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/discussions/9669)

Jeff Bolz	f095a649ec	vulkan: get the first command buffer submitted sooner (#10499 ) This is an incremental improvement over #9118 to get work to the GPU a bit sooner. The first part is to start with a smaller number of nodes before the first submit, and ramp it up to the current 100 nodes/submit. The second part is to reduce the dryrun overhead for all the nodes that just need to request descriptor space. With these changes I get around 1-2% speedup on RTX 4070 combined with my old Haswell-era CPU.	2024-11-29 07:18:02 +01:00
