Nano-vLLM
A lightweight vLLM implementation built from scratch
...Despite its compact design, nano-vllm incorporates advanced optimization techniques such as prefix caching, tensor parallelism, and CUDA graph execution to achieve high performance during model inference. The engine is intended primarily for educational use, experimentation, and lightweight deployments where a full production-grade inference stack may be unnecessary. Its API closely mirrors that of the original vLLM framework, allowing developers familiar with vLLM to adopt the tool with minimal changes.
