Choose LlamaFactory if…
- LlamaFactory is primarily Python; dart-math is Jupyter Notebook.
- License: LlamaFactory is Apache-2.0, dart-math is MIT.
- Tags unique to LlamaFactory: gemma, fine-tuning, deepseek, ai.
- When you need to fine-tune over 100 different LLMs or VLMs with efficient methods like LoRA or QLoRA.
When NOT to use LlamaFactory
- When you are looking to fine-tune less popular or niche models that are not supported within the 100+ models covered by LlamaFactory.
- If your project specifically requires custom fine-tuning methods not available in this repository, such as certain versions of PEFT (Parameter Efficient Fine-Tuning) techniques excluding LoRA and QLoa
Choose dart-math if…
- dart-math is primarily Jupyter Notebook; LlamaFactory is Python.
- License: dart-math is MIT, LlamaFactory is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to dart-math: deep-learning, llm, nlp, jupyter notebook.
- Also covers Inference & Serving.
When NOT to use dart-math
- Last GitHub push was 579 days ago (dormant maintenance, Dec 10, 2024). Validate activity before betting a new project on dart-math.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
