# Qwen3.5-2B

[BaseRT](https://github.com/basecompute/baseRT) `.base` builds of [`Qwen/Qwen3.5-2B`](https://huggingface.co/Qwen/Qwen3.5-2B) for fast local inference on Apple Silicon (Metal).

Qwen3.5-2B is a hybrid-attention (Gated DeltaNet + periodic full attention) instruct model with a native vision tower. These bundles include the vision encoder — image inputs work out of the box.
