Example MLX Swift programs.

• MNISTTrainer: An example that runs on both iOS and macOS that downloads MNIST training data and trains a LeNet.

• LLMEval: An example that runs on both iOS and macOS that downloads an LLM and tokenizer from Hugging Face and generates text from a given prompt.

• LinearModelTraining: An example that trains a simple linear model.

• llm-tool: A command line tool for generating text using a variety of LLMs available on the Hugging Face hub.

• mnist-tool: A command line tool for training a LeNet on MNIST.

The application and command line tool examples can be run from Xcode or from the command line:

./mlx-run llm-tool --prompt "swift programming language"

The MLXLLM and MLXMNIST libraries in the example repo are available as Swift Packages.

Add the following dependency to your Package.swift

.package(url: "https://github.com/ml-explore/mlx-swift-examples/", branch: "main"),

Then add one library or both libraries to the target as a dependency.

.target(
    name: "YourTargetName",
    dependencies: [
        .product(name: "LLM", package: "mlx-swift-examples")
    ]),

Alternatively, add https://github.com/ml-explore/mlx-swift-examples/ to the Project Dependencies and set the Dependency Rule to Branch and main in Xcode.
