Gemma 4 with MLX
MLX is the Apple-silicon-first route for Gemma 4 experimentation on Macs.
Why MLX is worth its own page
If you searched Gemma 4 MLX, you probably care about one thing: getting a Mac-native path instead of following generic CUDA-centric guidance.
Best fit
- Apple silicon experimentation
- Mac-first local workflows
- Teams validating Gemma 4 on Apple hardware
When to choose something else
- Use Ollama if you want the fastest generic CLI path.
- Use vLLM if you are really solving serving, not local experimentation.
