I am researching doing the same, but know nothing about running my own yet. Did you train your llm for programming in any way, or just download and run an open source one? If so which model etc do you use?
Lot’s of technical details, but essentially the llamafile is a engine + model + web ui, in a single executable file. You just download it and run it and stuff happens.
Run an open source one. Training requires lots of knowledge and even more hardware resources/time. Fine tuned models are available for free online, there is not much use in training it yourself.
I recommend llavafiles, as this is the easiest option to run. The GitHub has all the stuff you need in the “quick start” section.
Though the default is a bit restricted on windows. Since the llavafiles are bundling the LLM weights with the executable and Windows has a 4GB limit on executables you’re restricted to very small models. Workarounds are available though!
Im gonna give llamafile a go! I want to try to run it at least once with a different set of weights just to see it work and also see different weights handle the same inputs.
The reason I am asking about training is because of my work where fine tuning our own is going to come knocking soon, so I want to stay a bit ahead of the curve. Even though it already feels like I am late to the party.

Have a look at llama file models they’re pretty cool, just rename to xxx.exe and run on windows and chmod on Linux.
Though the currently supported ones are limited, you could try llama code.
Where do you get it? Hugging face?
