M-Courtyard v0.5.0 is now live.
M-Courtyard is a native macOS desktop app for local LLM fine-tuning on Apple Silicon, built around Apple MLX. It covers the full workflow from document import and dataset generation to LoRA fine-tuning, testing, and export.
What’s new in v0.5.0:
- LM Studio and Ollama are now presented as parallel local runtime options for dataset generation
- Better LM Studio connection guidance and status feedback inside the app
- Clearer support positioning across the product and docs
- Export support for Ollama, MLX, and GGUF
- Built-in rules remain available when users want a no-runtime dataset path
This release is mainly about making the local workflow more accurate, practical, and easier to understand.
I’m attaching a few updated screenshots below. Feedback is welcome.
