LLaMA-Factory pros and cons

Fine-tunes 100+ LLMs and vision-language models from one framework, with fast day-one support for new releases
Covers many methods: SFT, pretraining, reward modeling, PPO, DPO, KTO, ORPO, and full/freeze/LoRA/QLoRA tuning
Zero-code option via the LLaMA Board Gradio web UI, plus a config-driven CLI
Built-in efficiency tricks (FlashAttention-2, Unsloth, Liger Kernel) and experiment tracking (TensorBoard, W&B, MLflow, SwanLab)
Requires an NVIDIA (or compatible) GPU with enough VRAM; it is not a CPU-friendly tool
You still need to understand fine-tuning concepts (datasets, methods, hyperparameters) to get good results
Rapidly adding new models and features can bring transformers/torch/CUDA version-compatibility friction
