Add Axolotl Fine-Tuning Guide

Adds a new example guide: Fine-Tune LLMs with Axolotl (examples/ai-ml-frameworks/axolotl-fine-tuning.mdx).

What it covers

  • Renting a GPU instance with the Axolotl template
  • Configuring a LoRA fine-tuning job via YAML (Qwen2.5-3B on FineTome-100k)
  • Running training with axolotl train
  • Testing the fine-tuned model with a Python inference script
  • Downloading the adapter and cleaning up the instance

Verified end-to-end

Every command in the guide was run on a live Vast.ai instance (RTX 3090, US region). Training completed successfully (300 steps, ~43 min) and inference produced correct output.

Step-by-step guide for fine-tuning Qwen2.5-3B with LoRA on Vast.ai
using the Axolotl toolkit. Covers GPU rental, training config, running
training, inference testing, and cleanup.
