Run llama.cpp on-browser via webassembly

Learn how to set up a frontend project with wllama, load a GGUF model via WebAssembly, and run llama.cpp text completions directly in the browser.

Overview

Wllama is a WebAssembly-based library designed to enable running large language model (LLM) inference directly within a browser, using the llama.cpp backend. It supports models in the GGUF format and can perform tasks like text completions and embeddings without requiring a server or GPU.

In this demo, I’ll demonstrate how to set up a new frontend project using wllama and run a simple text inference example.
