Train your own ChatGPT on Apple Silicon — MLX port of nanochat
A minimal, hackable Vision-Language Model built on Karpathy’s nanochat — add image understanding and multimodal chat for under $200 in compute.
The best GPT that $100-$125 worth of pre-training and finetuning can buy
nanochat's inference engine re-vibed in C++ with GGML.
Ascend NPU fork of nanochat for LLM training with torch_npu/HCCL (experimental)
I built this repo to prove to my granny that I can implement GPT.
Rust-first continuation of nanochat-rs, benchmarked against karpathy/nanochat for faster, reproducible LLM training, evaluation, and inference.
Run nanochat training efficiently on Huawei Ascend NPUs with minimal code changes, supporting tokenizer, pretraining, and evaluation workflows.
Add a description, image, and links to the nanochat topic page so that developers can more easily learn about it.
