Getting Started with WebLLM
|
|
===========================
|
|
|
|
This guide will help you set up WebLLM in your project, install necessary dependencies, and verify your setup.
|
|
|
|
|
|
WebLLM Chat
|
|
-----------
|
|
|
|
If you want to experience AI Chat supported by local LLM inference and understand how WebLLM works, try out `WebLLM Chat <https://chat.webllm.ai/>`__, which provides a great example
|
|
of integrating WebLLM into a full web application.
|
|
|
|
A WebGPU-compatible browser is needed to run WebLLM-powered web applications.
|
|
You can download the latest Google Chrome and use `WebGPU Report <https://webgpureport.org/>`__
|
|
to verify the functionality of WebGPU on your browser.
|
|
|
|
Installation
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
WebLLM offers a minimalist and modular interface to access the chatbot in the browser. The package is designed in a modular way to hook to any of the UI components.
|
|
|
|
WebLLM is available as an `npm package <https://www.npmjs.com/package/@mlc-ai/web-llm>`_ and is also CDN-delivered. Therefore, you can install WebLLM using Node.js package managers like npm, yarn, or pnpm, or directly import the pacakge via CDN.
|
|
|
|
Using Package Managers
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Install WebLLM via your preferred package manager:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: bash
|
|
|
|
# npm
|
|
npm install @mlc-ai/web-llm
|
|
# yarn
|
|
yarn add @mlc-ai/web-llm
|
|
# pnpm
|
|
pnpm install @mlc-ai/web-llm
|
|
|
|
Import WebLLM into your project:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
// Import everything
|
|
import * as webllm from "@mlc-ai/web-llm";
|
|
|
|
// Or only import what you need
|
|
import { CreateMLCEngine } from "@mlc-ai/web-llm";
|
|
|
|
Using CDN
|
|
^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Thanks to `jsdelivr.com <https://www.jsdelivr.com/package/npm/@mlc-ai/web-llm>`_, WebLLM can be imported directly through URL and work out-of-the-box on cloud development platforms like `jsfiddle.net <https://jsfiddle.net/>`_, `Codepen.io <https://codepen.io/>`_, and `Scribbler <https://scribbler.live/>`_:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
import * as webllm from "https://esm.run/@mlc-ai/web-llm";
|
|
|
|
This method is especially useful for online environments like CodePen, JSFiddle, or local experiments.
|
|
|
|
Verifying Installation
|
|
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
|
|
Run the following script to verify the installation:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: javascript
|
|
|
|
import { CreateMLCEngine } from "@mlc-ai/web-llm";
|
|
console.log("WebLLM loaded successfully!");
|
|
|
|
|
|
Online IDE Sandbox
|
|
------------------
|
|
|
|
Instead of setting WebLLM locally, you can also try it on online Javascript IDE sandboxes like:
|
|
|
|
- `Example in JSFiddle <https://jsfiddle.net/neetnestor/4nmgvsa2/>`_
|
|
- `Example in CodePen <https://codepen.io/neetnestor/pen/vYwgZaG>`_
