Description
📚 The doc issue
https://docs.pytorch.org/executorch/1.0/llm/getting-started.html
Currently we have 2 sections:
The first one uses etLLM and the second one shows up an example with nano-gpt. We should think about the content and ordering of these export documentations.
I would think we want 3 options:
- Exporting LLM using etLLM recipes
- Only support a handful models but have the best performance, good backend support
- Exporting LLM using optimum-executorch
- Good integration with transformers model zoo but limited quantization and backend support
- Exporting custom LLM
- Most flexible, but very advanced and for power users only.
