BytedTsinghua-SIA/DAPO
An Open-source RL System from ByteDance Seed and Tsinghua AIR
About the project
Open-source reinforcement learning system for large-scale LLM training, including the DAPO algorithm, code infrastructure, and dataset, plus released DAPO-Qwen-32B weights.
Useful for
- Train a reasoning LLM with the DAPO RL algorithm on your own dataset
- Evaluate DAPO-Qwen-32B on AIME 2024 using the provided Ray Serve and vLLM scripts
- Run inference with the released DAPO-Qwen-32B weights via vLLM

Why it’s trending
- 5 stars so far today, about 16 expected by the end of the day. The usual pace is 1 per day, so that's 16× as much.
- Before this, the repository barely got any stars — about 1 per day.
- The spike has held for 2 days in a row — not a one-off blip.

Star trust
Growth looks organic: forks and discussion are in line with active projects, and stars arrive unevenly, the way people give them.
These are heuristics, not a verdict: we judge by the repository’s behavior, not by a list of stargazers.
