New GRPO + TRL free Colab notebook out! 🔥

Fine-tune 7B+ models on T4 GPUs thanks to a ton of memory optimizations for GRPO

7B model uses only 9.2 GB VRAM (~7× reduction) 🤯

Try the notebook here 👉 https://colab.research.google.com/github/huggingface/trl/blob/main/examples/notebooks/grpo_trl_lora_qlora.ipynb

The list of hands-on notebooks (some beginner-friendly!) to get started with fine-tuning using TRL keeps growing!!

• SFT
• GRPO
• Tool calling & agents
• RL environments with OpenEnv
• LLMs and VLMs
✨ Many run on FREE Colab, making it super easy to get started fast!

ICYMI, you can fine-tune open LLMs using Claude Code

just tell it:
“Fine-tune Qwen3-0.6B on open-r1/codeforces-cots”

and Claude submits a real training job on HF GPUs using TRL.

it handles everything:
> dataset validation
> GPU selection
> training + Trackio monitoring
> job submission + cost estimation
when it’s done, your model is on the Hub, ready to use
