---# PyTorch Lightning
## Overview
PyTorch Lightning is a deep learning framework that organizes PyTorch code to eliminate boilerplate while maintaining full flexibility. Automate training workflows, multi-device orchestration, and implement best practices for neural network training and scaling across multiple GPUs/TPUs.
**Current upstream:** lightning 2.6.4 (PyPI, May 2026). Docs: [lightning.ai/docs/pytorch/stable](https://lightning.ai/docs/pytorch/stable/). Use `import lightning as L` (the `pytorch-lightning` package name still installs the same library).
## Installation
```bash
uv pip install lightning
```
Optional extras:
```bash
