Each library lives in its own repo, but the only thing your project needs from it is include/llm_<name>.hpp. Include it anywhere for the declarations; define LLM_<NAME>_IMPLEMENTATION in exactly one .cpp to compile the body.

Using several together.

+

Headers can be included side by side anywhere. Implementations are the one thing to keep apart.

+
+
+
+

One implementation per .cpp.

+

Several headers use the same internal helper names (for example llm::detail::json_escape), so defining two *_IMPLEMENTATION macros in one translation unit can fail to compile. llm-log with llm-stream is one such pair.

    One file is the whole install.

    +

    Each library lives in its own repo, but the only thing your project needs from it is include/llm_<name>.hpp. Include it anywhere for the declarations; define LLM_<NAME>_IMPLEMENTATION in exactly one .cpp to compile the body.

    The catalogue.

    +

    "none" means fully offline, standard library only. "libcurl" means the implementation makes HTTPS calls to OpenAI and/or Anthropic. Tick the ones you want and the install section writes the commands for you.

    Real code, real output.

    +

    Six of the offline libraries, each a complete program with its implementation macro in the same file. The output beside each one is exactly what it printed; nothing is mocked except where a comment says so.

    +
    +
    {{TABS}}

    Compiled with {{COMPILER}} (/std:c++17 /EHsc /O2) against each library's current header and run on {{BUILD_DATE}}. Sources: examples/offline, rebuilt with g++ on every CI run. Prices come from llm-cost's built-in table.

    Using several together.

    +

    Headers can be included side by side anywhere. Implementations are the one thing to keep apart.

    +
    +
    +
    +

    One implementation per .cpp.

    +

    Several headers use the same internal helper names (for example llm::detail::json_escape), so defining two *_IMPLEMENTATION macros in one translation unit can fail to compile. llm-log with llm-stream is one such pair.

    +
    +

    Checked {{BUILD_DATE}}: all {{N}} implementations, each in its own .cpp, compile and link into one binary ({{COMPILER}}, libcurl from vcpkg).

    Your install, written for you.

    +

    Pick headers in the catalogue. This fetches them into third_party/, gives each implementation its own .cpp, and adds -lcurl only if something you picked needs it.
