  # Chat with LLMs Everywhere
  
  torchchat is a small codebase showcasing the ability to run large language models (LLMs) seamlessly. With torchchat, you can run LLMs using Python, within your own (C/C++) application (desktop or server) and on iOS and Android.

  # Chat with LLMs Everywhere: A PyTorch LLM Deployment Toolkit
  
  torchchat is a reference implementation and toolkit for seamlessly embedding and deploying PyTorch large language models (LLMs). It enables running LLMs directly within your Python applications, custom C/C++ desktop and server applications, and natively on iOS and Android devices.

  ## Comparison with Alternatives
  
  Unlike general-purpose LLM UIs like Ollama or LM Studio, torchchat is a developer toolkit focused on providing a PyTorch-native reference implementation for embedding LLMs directly into custom applications. While tools like ONNX Runtime or LibTorch offer general inference capabilities, torchchat specifically targets end-to-end PyTorch LLM deployment, including C++ and mobile integration, with pre-optimized workflows.
