Local GenAI on Jetson: OSS models using different inferencing frameworks: Ollama, llama.cpp, & vLLM

This opening session builds the foundation for running popular OSS models such as Gemma, Qwen directly on Jetson — no cloud required. We cover when to use Ollama for rapid local prototyping versus vLLM for higher-throughput serving, show how the same workflow applies to both power different OSS models, and walk through the real decisions behind model choice, containers, quantization, and performance tuning on edge hardware. We close with a teaser of OpenClaw and a bonus take-home challenge to kick off community building.
