Building a Complete LLM Pipeline
Everything from Lessons 01 to 12 is one stage of one pipeline. This lesson is the scaffold that turns those stages into a single end-to-end run: tokenize, pre-train, scale, SFT, align, evaluate, quantize, serve. You will not train a 70B model on a laptop. You will produce the orchestration layer, the manifest, the eval gate, and the rollback plan that a 2026 frontier team uses to decide what gets shipped. This is the capstone.
Visual edition planned
This lesson isn’t interactive yet.
It is part of the curriculum and will get the same treatment as Phase 1 — a visual cover, hands-on labs, derivations with numeric checks and a quiz. Until then, the original lesson is the best place to read it:
Part of Phase 10 — LLMs from Scratch. Use the previous / next cards below to keep browsing the phase.
