nanoVLM: Minimal Pure-PyTorch Repository for Training Vision-Language Models

Hugging Face published nanoVLM, a minimal open-source repository designed to make training vision-language models (VLMs) as simple as possible using pure PyTorch. The project aims to lower the barrier to entry for VLM research and experimentation by providing a clean, readable codebase without heavy abstractions. It follows in the tradition of educational ML repositories like nanoGPT, targeting researchers and practitioners who want to understand or customize VLM training from scratch.
