这里应该同时让用户和 Agent 知道第一步该复制什么、安装什么、落到哪里。

# Install
pip install mlx

# Quick start — matrix multiply on Apple GPU
python -c "
import mlx.core as mx
a = mx.random.normal((512, 512))
b = mx.random.normal((512, 512))
c = a @ b
mx.eval(c)
print(f'Result shape: {c.shape}, device: Apple GPU')
"

# For LLM inference, install mlx-lm
pip install mlx-lm
mlx_lm.generate --model mlx-community/Llama-3.2-3B-Instruct-4bit --prompt "Hello"

介绍

MLX is an array framework for machine learning on Apple silicon, developed by Apple machine learning research. With 24,900+ GitHub stars and MIT license, MLX provides a NumPy-like Python API with composable function transformations (autodiff, vectorization, optimization), lazy computation, dynamic graph construction, and a unified memory model — no manual data transfers between CPU and GPU. It supports Python, C++, C, and Swift, making it ideal for training and inference on Mac hardware.

Best for: ML researchers and developers running models locally on Apple silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4) Works with: Claude Code, OpenAI Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, Windsurf Platforms: macOS (Apple Silicon), Linux (CUDA/CPU)

Key Features

NumPy-like API: Familiar interface for Python ML developers
Unified memory: No manual CPU↔GPU data transfers on Apple silicon
Lazy computation: Operations evaluated only when needed
Composable transforms: Autodiff, vectorization, and graph optimization
Multi-language: Python, C++, C, and Swift bindings
mlx-lm: Run and fine-tune LLMs locally on Mac (Llama, Mistral, Qwen, etc.)

FAQ

Q: What is MLX? A: MLX is Apple's open-source ML framework with 24.9K+ stars for running machine learning on Apple silicon. It provides a NumPy-like API with unified memory, lazy computation, and autodiff. MIT licensed.

Q: How do I install MLX? A: Run pip install mlx. For LLM inference: pip install mlx-lm. Requires Apple silicon Mac (M1+) or Linux with CUDA.
