Hugging Face Hub

Also known as: HF Hub · hub models

Local

The Hugging Face Hub is the repository side of huggingface.co — the searchable catalog of models, datasets, and demos.

  • Search by task, size, or license.
  • Pull directly with huggingface-cli or transformers.
  • Each repo lists weights, tokenizer, and metadata.

How to pick: filter by parameter count and license, read the model card, and check for a GGUF conversion if you want to run it locally.
