## Choose when

### Choose pratical-llms if…

- pratical-llms is primarily Jupyter Notebook; sagify is Python.
- Tags unique to pratical-llms: genai, llm-evaluation, llm-serving, llm-training.
- Also covers Evaluation & Observability.
- If you want to explore specific quantization methods like BitandBytes, GPTQ, exllamav2, or Half-Quadratic Quantization (HQQ).

### Choose sagify if…

- sagify is primarily Python; pratical-llms is Jupyter Notebook.
- Requirements: Requires Docker; - Requires Docker to manage environments consistently across different platforms..
- Tags unique to sagify: ai-gateway, anthropic, cohere, generative-ai.
- - When you need an integrated solution for various aspects of working with LLMs and ML tasks that is easy to understand and use, without deep technical expertise.

## When NOT to use pratical-llms

- If you seek deep theoretical insights rather than practical implementation details.
- For users looking for commercial support as this repository does not provide it, unlike some competitors.

## When NOT to use sagify

- - When your focus is exclusively on advanced fine-tuning or customization of machine learning models which require deep configuration options tailored to specific needs.
- - If you prioritize working within a highly specialized ML ecosystem that has its own set of tools and workflows, as Sagify might not integrate seamlessly with every specialized tool.
