You can install SGLang using any of the methods below. For running DeepSeek V3/R1 with SGLang, refer to [DeepSeek V3 Support](https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang/tree/main/benchmark/deepseek_v3). It is always recommended to use the [latest release version](https://pypi.org/project/sglang/#history) and deploy it with [Docker](https://github.com/sgl-project/sglang/tree/main/benchmark/deepseek_v3#using-docker-recommended) to avoid fixed issues and environment-related problems.
Note: SGLang currently uses torch 2.5, so you need to install the flashinfer version for torch 2.5. If you want to install flashinfer separately, please refer to [FlashInfer installation doc](https://docs.flashinfer.ai/installation.html).

## Common Notes
-[FlashInfer](https://github.com/flashinfer-ai/flashinfer) is the default attention kernel backend. It only supports sm75 and above. If you encounter any FlashInfer-related issues on sm75+ devices (e.g., T4, A10, A100, L4, L40S, H100), please switch to other kernels by adding `--attention-backend triton --sampling-backend pytorch` and open an issue on GitHub.
- If you only need to use OpenAI models with the frontend language, you can avoid installing other dependencies by using `pip install "sglang[openai]"`.
- The language frontend operates independently of the backend runtime. You can install the frontend locally without needing a GPU, while the backend can be set up on a GPU-enabled machine. To install the frontend, run `pip install sglang`, and for the backend, use `pip install sglang[srt]`. This allows you to build SGLang programs locally and execute them by connecting to the remote backend.

To install the frontend, run `pip install sglang`, and for the backend, use `pip install sglang[srt]`. `srt` is the abbreviation of SGLang runtime.
- To reinstall flashinfer locally, use the following command: `pip install "flashinfer-python>=0.2.1.post1" -i https://flashinfer.ai/whl/cu124/torch2.5 --force-reinstall --no-deps` and then delete the cache with `rm -rf ~/.cache/flashinfer`.
