From their official post on Reddit:
Hey folks, it’s Merve from Hugging Face. Today, llama.cpp releases v1!
Moving forward, we’ll keep covering every platform and every model type, while keeping llama.cpp robust and lean for downstream applications that build on it.
While I’m here, want to announce that we’ve been shipping Llama desktop apps to lower the barrier of entry to local AI to few clicks, built-on llama.cpp. I will leave link to the details for both v1 and apps in comments.
Many thanks for all the love you’ve shown to llama.cpp for years 🦙❤️ Cheers!
Great news, great project. Projects staying below 1.0 for a long time are always tragic. No confidence in stability, and consequences of that for users.
I don’t know if they were still iterating with such big changes or feature/model support gaps? Anyway, great to see this stabilization. Always feels better to use a stable >=1.0.
