To successfully install and run csm-mlx on a macOS device, the following conditions need to be met:
- hardware requirement: Must use a Mac device with an Apple Silicon chip (e.g., M1, M2).
- system version: Requires macOS to be running
- software environment::
- Python 3.10 or higher (can be installed via Homebrew: brew install python@3.10)
- Git version control tool (can be installed via brew install git)
- storage space: it is recommended to reserve at least 5GB of space, as the model files take about 1-2GB, plus space for the dependency libraries and generated files
The installation process also involves creating a Python virtual environment and installing the MLX framework and Hugging Face libraries. Ensure that you have a good internet connection, as the first run will require you to download a large model weights file.
