About the project

Model-definition framework for state-of-the-art pretrained ML models (text, vision, audio, multimodal) for inference and training, compatible with most training and inference engines.

Useful for
  • Run text generation with Qwen2.5 via the pipeline API
  • Transcribe audio with Whisper through the pipeline API
  • Classify an image with DINOv2 via the pipeline API

2.8 Steady Magnitude out of 10 — how fast interest is growing, not a quality score.

Star growth looks organic. Data as of October 23, 2026, 10:35 UTC.

The star-growth assessment does not verify whether the project is safe to run.

Stars per day

0250500August 1, 2026October 29, 2026

Bars show stars per UTC day; the line is a moving average of available history. Gaps mean missing data, not zero growth. Today's bar is incomplete. Red marks spike days.

Why it’s trending

  • Star-counter measurements on 2026-10-23 (UTC), 00:40–10:27: 168003 → 168019 stars (+16). This is the change over that interval.
  • Estimated end-of-day forecast: about +43 stars, using observed gains and the previous day.
  • Interest is fading: the two-day pace is 49% of the previous week and a half.
  • About 14 forks a day — people are taking the code.
  • Recent forks include notable developers: @benthecarman (592 followers).

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.
