There are lots of general-purpose models to use locally, and also coding-specific models.

But are there models specialized in one programming language? My thought was that a model that only needs to handle one language (e.g. Python) could be faster, or be better for a given size.

E.g If I need to code in Rust and is limited to an 8B model to run locally, I was hoping to get better results with a model that is narrower. I don't need it to be able to help with Java.

This approach would of course require switching models, but that's no problem for me.

I finally found a Python-specific model. Searching is tricky when almost everything around local llms involve Python. https://huggingface.co/codellama/CodeLlama-13b-Python-hf
