Open-source software that pools several Apple Silicon Macs (and Linux hosts) into one local inference cluster, sharding large models across devices with MLX

C/C++ inference engine for LLMs and vision-language models with GGUF quantized weights, Metal, CUDA, Vulkan and other backends, a CLI and an OpenAI-compatible server

Open-source runtime and model manager for running open-weight LLMs locally on macOS, Windows and Linux, with a REST API, OpenAI- and Anthropic-compatible endpoints and optional cloud models

Open-source Python framework for distributing tasks, actors and ML workloads across a cluster, with libraries for data processing, training, tuning, serving and reinforcement learning

Hugging Face's model-definition library for text, vision, audio, video and multimodal models, with Pipeline, Trainer and generate APIs used as the reference by training and inference engines

Open-source framework for fine-tuning and running LLMs with reduced memory, covering LoRA, QLoRA, full fine-tuning and RL, GGUF export, Dynamic quantizations and a local Studio/Desktop UI

High-throughput LLM inference and serving engine with PagedAttention, continuous batching, quantization and an OpenAI-compatible server for GPU and accelerator clusters
