# What does this PR do? Reorganizes the Llama stack webpage into more concise index pages, introduce more of a workflow, and reduce repetition of content. New nav structure so far based on #2637 Further discussions in https://github.com/meta-llama/llama-stack/discussions/2585 **Preview:**  You can also build a full local preview locally **Feedback** Looking for feedback on page titles and general feedback on the new structure **Follow up documentation** I plan on reducing some sections and standardizing some terminology in a follow up PR. More discussions on that in https://github.com/meta-llama/llama-stack/discussions/2585

Llama Stack
Welcome to Llama Stack, the open-source framework for building generative AI applications.
:class: tip
Check out [Getting Started with Llama 4](https://colab.research.google.com/github/meta-llama/llama-stack/blob/main/docs/getting_started_llama4.ipynb)
:class: tip
Llama Stack {{ llama_stack_version }} is now available! See the {{ llama_stack_version_link }} for more details.
What is Llama Stack?
Llama Stack defines and standardizes the core building blocks needed to bring generative AI applications to market. It provides a unified set of APIs with implementations from leading service providers, enabling seamless transitions between development and production environments. More specifically, it provides
- Unified API layer for Inference, RAG, Agents, Tools, Safety, Evals, and Telemetry.
- Plugin architecture to support the rich ecosystem of implementations of the different APIs in different environments like local development, on-premises, cloud, and mobile.
- Prepackaged verified distributions which offer a one-stop solution for developers to get started quickly and reliably in any environment
- Multiple developer interfaces like CLI and SDKs for Python, Node, iOS, and Android
- Standalone applications as examples for how to build production-grade AI applications with Llama Stack

Our goal is to provide pre-packaged implementations (aka "distributions") which can be run in a variety of deployment environments. LlamaStack can assist you in your entire app development lifecycle - start iterating on local, mobile or desktop and seamlessly transition to on-prem or public cloud deployments. At every point in this transition, the same set of APIs and the same developer experience is available.
How does Llama Stack work?
Llama Stack consists of a server (with multiple pluggable API providers) and Client SDKs (see below) meant to be used in your applications. The server can be run in a variety of environments, including local (inline) development, on-premises, and cloud. The client SDKs are available for Python, Swift, Node, and Kotlin.

Supported Llama Stack Implementations
A number of "adapters" are available for some popular Inference and Vector Store providers. For other APIs (particularly Safety and Agents), we provide reference implementations you can use to get started. We expect this list to grow over time. We are slowly onboarding more providers to the ecosystem as we get more confidence in the APIs.
