    From the README

    Kubeflow Trainer is a Kubernetes-native project designed for large language models (LLMs) fine-tuning and enabling scalable, distributed training of machine learning (ML) models across various frameworks, including PyTorch, JAX, TensorFlow, and others.

    You can integrate other ML libraries such as HuggingFace, DeepSpeed, or Megatron-LM with Kubeflow Trainer to run them on Kubernetes.

    Kubeflow Trainer enables you to effortlessly develop your LLMs with the Kubeflow Python SDK, and build Kubernetes-native Training Runtimes using Kubernetes Custom Resource APIs.
