...It emphasizes reproducible experiments: each step is demonstrated with runnable code, clear dependencies, and references to commonly used open-source models and libraries. Learners get exposure to multiple adaptation strategies—LoRA/QLoRA, instruction fine-tuning, and alignment techniques—so they can choose approaches that fit their hardware and budgets. The materials also cover inference optimization and quantization to make serving LLMs feasible on commodity GPUs or even CPUs, which is crucial for side projects and startups. Evaluation is treated as a first-class topic, with examples of automatic and human-in-the-loop methods to catch regressions and verify quality beyond simple loss values. ...
