Model Training
Model training tools cover fine-tuning and post-training (LoRA, QLoRA, RLHF) when prompting and RAG are not enough for style, format, or domain behavior. Prefer lighter adapters before full fine-tunes; skip training entirely if retrieval already covers missing knowledge. GraphCanon lists published open-source toolkits with live GitHub signals, featured compares, and alternatives hubs for the highest-intent pairs. transformers currently leads this list at 164,121 GitHub stars among 563 published tools.
