llama.cpp is an open-source C/C++ library for local and cloud LLM inference, originally created by Georgi Gerganov. It runs with no external dependencies such as Python or PyTorch, supports numerous hardware backends (CPU, CUDA, Metal, Vulkan, SYCL, and more), and uses the quantized GGUF model format to run LLMs efficiently even on consumer hardware. The built-in llama-server provides an OpenAI-compatible HTTP API and serves as the backend for projects like Ollama. The project is maintained by the ggml-org community and ships continuous build-tagged releases instead of traditional semantic versions.
