// about Gemma
Gemma is Google DeepMind's family of open-weight language models, designed to be lightweight enough to run on laptops and edge devices while delivering strong performance on reasoning, coding, and conversation. The Gemma 2 and Gemma 3 releases — available in 2B, 9B, and 27B variants — have become popular choices for developers who want Google-quality AI without the API costs. Gemma models are freely downloadable from Hugging Face and run natively in Ollama and LM Studio.
