 # Instructions to train SmolLM3-3B
 
-We are open-sourcing all the artifacts to train [SmolLM3-3B](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM3-3B). You can find the configuration files for the three post-training stages in the [`sft`](https://github.com/huggingface/alignment-handbook/tree/main/recipes/smollm3/sft) and [`dpo`](https://github.com/huggingface/alignment-handbook/tree/main/recipes/smollm3/dpo) directories.

-We are currently working on the code release, so this README will contain the instructions to run training after we release the code on the week of July 14, 2025. 
+We are open-sourcing all the artifacts to train [SmolLM3-3B](https://huggingface.co/HuggingFaceTB/SmolLM3-3B). You can find the configuration files for the three post-training stages (mid-training, SFT, and DPO) in the [`sft`](https://github.com/huggingface/alignment-handbook/tree/main/recipes/smollm3/sft) and [`dpo`](https://github.com/huggingface/alignment-handbook/tree/main/recipes/smollm3/dpo) directories.
 
 ## Setup
 
-[WIP]

+Make sure you followed the installation instructions in the [README.md](README.md) file. We tested the training setup with 8 GPUs (80GB of VRAM) to train the full model.
