CodeGemma 2B local setup guide.
Lightweight code model for fast local coding experiments and low-memory machines. Architecture: Gemma code transformer. Best for: fast CPU-friendly coding smoke tests; low-memory development machines. Avoid if: you need strong multi-file code reasoning; a 7B coding model fits your device. Cloud fallback: Use cloud or larger local models for serious code changes. Hardware requirements start at 4GB RAM and 2GB VRAM, with 6GB RAM and 4GB VRAM recommended. Quant recommendations include Q4_K_M on Ollama. Runtime notes: Ollama: Works on macOS, Windows, and Linux; GPU acceleration depends on local driver support.. Setup commands: Ollama: ollama pull codegemma:2b.
