### Build with Linux/ Mac Using Make
These commands are specific to Ubuntu linux but OS specific varients are just a google away given this handy dependency list. Also, if you're using your windows gaming machine, some users have reported great success in using [WSL2](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/issues/103#issuecomment-1470440202) to install Ubuntu within Windows and following the linux build instructions to run this project.

**Note:** Be concious of how you're mounting the data, as that this can have significat performance impacts. WSL2 users should note that the p9 file sharing system will significantly slow things down when using symlinks to the host windows machine.
```bash
# On linux, run this from the root of this repo
