Unsloth Training Notebook Generator

Generate training notebooks for fine-tuning with Unsloth.

Quick Start

Copy and customize the template notebook:

notebooks/sft_template.ipynb

Or use a training script directly:

python scripts/train_sft.py  # Supervised fine-tuning
python scripts/train_dpo.py  # Direct preference optimization
python scripts/train_grpo.py # Group relative policy optimization

Configuration Modes

Ask the user which mode they prefer:

1. Sensible defaults – Production-ready notebook with recommended settings
2. Guide me – Walk through each option with explanations
3. Leave it empty – Notebook with ipywidgets for runtime configuration

Mode 1: Sensible Defaults

Use these production-ready defaults:

Mode 2: Guide Me

Ask questions in order. See MODEL_SELECTION.md for model options and TRAINING_METHODS.md for technique details.

Key Questions

1. Model family: Llama, Qwen, Gemma, Phi, Mistral, DeepSeek?
2. Model size: Based on VRAM (see HARDWARE_GUIDE.md)
3. Training technique: SFT, DPO, GRPO, ORPO, KTO?
4. Quantization: 4-bit (recommended), 8-bit, 16-bit?
5. LoRA rank: 8, 16, 32, 64?
6. Sequence length: 512, 1024, 2048, 4096?
7. Batch size: 1, 2, 4, 8?
8. Learning rate: 1e-5, 5e-5, 2e-4, 5e-4?
9. Training duration: 1 epoch, 3 epochs, or specific steps?

Mode 3: ipywidgets

Generate a notebook with interactive configuration widgets. Users select options at runtime.

Notebook Structure

Generate notebooks with these sections:

1. Title and Overview – What the notebook does
2. Installation – Install Unsloth
3. Imports and GPU Check – Verify environment
4. Configuration – All tunable parameters
5. Load Model – FastLanguageModel.from_pretrained()
6. Apply LoRA – FastLanguageModel.get_peft_model()
7. Load Dataset – Format-appropriate loading
8. Training – SFTTrainer/DPOTrainer/GRPOTrainer
9. Save Model – LoRA adapter + merged model
10. Test Inference – Quick verification

After Generation

Ask where to run training:

1. Hugging Face Jobs – Cloud GPUs (funsloth-hfjobs)
2. RunPod – Flexible GPU rentals (funsloth-runpod)
3. Local – Your own GPU (funsloth-local)
