> ⚠️ **Torchtune is no longer actively maintained:** torchtune development wound down in 2025 — see [The future of torchtune](https://github.com/meta-pytorch/torchtune/issues/2883). Huge thanks to the 150+ contributors who made this library what it was.

## Overview 📚

torchtune is a PyTorch library for easily authoring, post-training, and experimenting with LLMs. It provides:

- Hackable training recipes for SFT, knowledge distillation, DPO, PPO, GRPO, and quantization-aware training
- Simple PyTorch implementations of popular LLMs like Llama, Gemma, Mistral, Phi, Qwen, and more
- Best-in-class memory efficiency, performance improvements, and scaling, utilizing the latest PyTorch APIs
- YAML configs for easily configuring training, evaluation, quantization or inference recipes

&nbsp;

### Post-training recipes

torchtune supports [the entire post-training lifecycle](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/recipes/recipes_overview.html). A successful post-trained model will likely utilize several of the below methods.

#### Supervised Finetuning (SFT)

| Type of Weight Update | 1 Device | >1 Device | >1 Node |
|-----------------------|:--------:|:---------:|:-------:|
| Full                  |    ✅    |     ✅    |   ✅    |

Example: ``tune run lora_finetune_single_device --config llama3_2/3B_lora_single_device`` 
You can also run e.g. ``tune ls lora_finetune_single_device`` for a full list of available configs.

The above configs are just examples to get you started. The full list of recipes can be found [here](recipes/). If you'd like to work on one of the gaps you see, please submit a PR! If there's a entirely new post-training method you'd like to see implemented in torchtune, feel free to open an Issue.

### Memory and training speed

Below is an example of the memory requirements and training speed for different Llama 3.1 models.

> [!NOTE]
> For ease of comparison, all the below numbers are provided for batch size 2 (without gradient accumulation), a dataset packed to sequence length 2048, and torch compile enabled.

If you are interested in running on different hardware or with different models, check out our documentation on memory optimizations [here](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/tutorials/memory_optimizations.html) to find the right setup for you.

| Model | Finetuning Method | Runnable On | Peak Memory per GPU | Tokens/sec * |

**= Uses CPU offload with fused optimizer

&nbsp;

### Optimization flags

torchtune exposes a number of levers for memory efficiency and performance. The table below demonstrates the effects of applying some of these techniques sequentially to the Llama 3.2 3B model. Each technique is added on top of the previous one, except for LoRA and QLoRA, which do not use `optimizer_in_bwd` or `AdamW8bit` optimizer.

> Baseline uses Recipe=**full_finetune_single_device**, Model=**Llama 3.2 3B**, Batch size=**2**, Max sequence length=**4096**, Precision=**bf16**, Hardware=**A100**

## Installation 🛠️

torchtune is **only** tested with the latest stable PyTorch release (currently 2.6.0) as well as the preview nightly version, and leverages
torchvision for finetuning multimodal LLMs and torchao for the latest in quantization techniques; you should install these as well.

### Install stable release

```bash
# Install stable PyTorch, torchvision, torchao stable releases
pip install torch torchvision torchao
pip install torchtune
```

### Install nightly release

```bash
# Install PyTorch, torchvision, torchao nightlies.
pip install --pre --upgrade torch torchvision torchao --index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/nightly/cu126 # full options are cpu/cu118/cu124/cu126/xpu/rocm6.2/rocm6.3/rocm6.4
pip install --pre --upgrade torchtune --extra-index-url https://download.pytorch.org/whl/nightly/cpu
```

You can also check out our [install documentation](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/install.html) for more information, including installing torchtune from source.

&nbsp;

To confirm that the package is installed correctly, you can run the following command:

```bash
tune --help
```

And should see the following output:

```bash
usage: tune [-h] {ls,cp,download,run,validate} ...

Welcome to the torchtune CLI!

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit

...
```

&nbsp;

## Get Started 🚀

To get started with torchtune, see our [First Finetune Tutorial](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/tutorials/first_finetune_tutorial.html). Our [End-to-End Workflow Tutorial](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/tutorials/e2e_flow.html) will show you how to evaluate, quantize, and run inference with a Llama model. The rest of this section will provide a quick overview of these steps with Llama3.1.

### Downloading a model

Follow the instructions on the official [`meta-llama`](https://huggingface.co/meta-llama) repository to ensure you have access to the official Llama model weights. Once you have confirmed access, you can run the following command to download the weights to your local machine. This will also download the tokenizer model and a responsible use guide.

To download Llama3.1, you can run:

```bash
tune download meta-llama/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct \
--output-dir /tmp/Meta-Llama-3.1-8B-Instruct \
--ignore-patterns "original/consolidated.00.pth" \
--hf-token <HF_TOKEN> \
```

> [!Tip]
> Set your environment variable `HF_TOKEN` or pass in `--hf-token` to the command in order to validate your access. You can find your token at https://huggingface.co/settings/tokens

### Running finetuning recipes

You can finetune Llama3.1 8B with LoRA on a single GPU using the following command:

```bash
tune run lora_finetune_single_device --config llama3_1/8B_lora_single_device
```

For distributed training, tune CLI integrates with [torchrun](https://pytorch.org/docs/stable/elastic/run.html).
To run a full finetune of Llama3.1 8B on two GPUs:

```bash
tune run --nproc_per_node 2 full_finetune_distributed --config llama3_1/8B_full
```

> [!Tip]
> Make sure to place any torchrun commands **before** the recipe specification. Any CLI args after this will override the config and not impact distributed training.

### Modify Configs

There are two ways in which you can modify configs:

**Config Overrides**

You can directly overwrite config fields from the command line:

```bash
tune run lora_finetune_single_device \
--config llama2/7B_lora_single_device \
batch_size=8 \
enable_activation_checkpointing=True \
max_steps_per_epoch=128
```

**Update a Local Copy**

You can also copy the config to your local directory and modify the contents directly:

```bash
tune cp llama3_1/8B_full ./my_custom_config.yaml
Copied to ./my_custom_config.yaml
```

Then, you can run your custom recipe by directing the `tune run` command to your local files:

```bash
tune run full_finetune_distributed --config ./my_custom_config.yaml
```

Check out `tune --help` for all possible CLI commands and options. For more information on using and updating configs, take a look at our [config deep-dive](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/deep_dives/configs.html).

### Custom Datasets

torchtune supports finetuning on a variety of different datasets, including [instruct-style](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/basics/instruct_datasets.html), [chat-style](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/basics/chat_datasets.html), [preference datasets](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/basics/preference_datasets.html), and more. If you want to learn more about how to apply these components to finetune on your own custom dataset, please check out the provided links along with our [API docs](https://pytorch.org/torchtune/main/api_ref_datasets.html).

### Custom Devices
torchtune supports finetuning on a variety of devices, including NVIDIA GPU, Intel XPU, AMD ROCm, Apple MPS, and Ascend NPU. If you're interested in running recipes on a custom device, such as Intel XPU, follow the steps below.

Step 1: Refer to the [Getting Started on Intel GPU guide](https://docs.pytorch.org/docs/stable/notes/get_start_xpu.html) to configure your environment.

Step 2: Update device information via either CLI override or config changes.
You can directly overwrite config fields from the command line:

```bash
tune run lora_finetune_single_device --config llama3_1/8B_lora_single_device device=xpu
```
Or edit your local copy of configuration files and replace `device: cuda` with `device: xpu`
