What it does

Training models in plain PyTorch requires writing and maintaining a lot of repetitive engineering code. Handling backpropagation, mixed precision, multi-GPU, and distributed training is error-prone and often reimplemented for every project. PyTorch Lightning organizes PyTorch code to automate this infrastructure while keeping full control over your model logic. You write the science. Lightning handles the engineering, and scales from CPU to multi-node GPUs without changing your core code. PyTorch experts can still opt into expert-level control.
