 ExecuTorch supports both iOS and MacOS via C++, as well as hardware backends for CoreML, MPS, and CPU. The iOS runtime library is provided as a collection of .xcframework targets and are made available as a Swift PM package.

Make sure to change the branch name to the desired ExecuTorch version in format “swiftpm-”, (e.g. “swiftpm-0.5.0”).  The ExecuTorch dependency can also be added to the package file manually.

 Link your binary with the ExecuTorch runtime and any backends or kernels used by the exported ML model. It is recommended to link the core runtime to the components that use ExecuTorch directly, and link kernels and backends against the main app target.
 
 Note: To access logs, link against the Debug build of the ExecuTorch runtime, i.e., the executorch_debug framework. For optimal performance, always link against the Release version of the deliverables (those without the _debug suffix), which have all logging overhead removed.

 ## Prepare Models
 In this demo app, we support text-only inference with up-to-date Llama models and image reasoning inference with LLaVA 1.5.
 * You can request and download model weights for Llama through Meta official [website](https://llama.meta.com/).
 * For chat use-cases, download the instruct models instead of pretrained.
-* Run `examples/models/llama/install_requirements.sh` to install dependencies.
+* Run `./examples/models/llama/install_requirements.sh` to install dependencies.
 * Rename tokenizer for Llama3.x with command: `mv tokenizer.model tokenizer.bin`. We are updating the demo app to support tokenizer in original format directly.
