A FastAPI based application that allows for generating text using an LLM (large language model) using the Exllamav2 backend

If you want to add samplers, add them in the exllamav2 library and then link them to tabbyAPI.

Getting Started

• Exl2 (Highly recommended)

• GPTQ

• FP16 (using Exllamav2's loader)

Alternative Loaders/Backends

If you want to use a different model type than the ones listed above, here are some alternative backends with their own APIs:
