#### Nitro
|
||||
### Cortex.cpp
|
||||
Jan is powered by **Cortex.cpp**. It is a C++ command-line interface (CLI) designed as an alternative to [Ollama](https://ollama.com/). By default, it runs on the llama.cpp engine but also supports other engines, including ONNX and TensorRT-LLM, making it a multi-engine platform.
|
||||
|
||||
Nitro is a high-efficiency C++ inference engine for edge computing. It is lightweight and embeddable, and can be used on its own within your own projects.

## Troubleshooting
|
||||
|
||||
As Jan is in development mode, you might get stuck on a broken build.
|
||||
|
||||
To reset your installation:
|
||||
|
||||
1. Use the following commands to remove any dangling backend processes:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
ps aux | grep nitro
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
Look for processes like "nitro" and "nitro_arm_64," and kill them one by one with:
|
||||
|
||||
```sh
|
||||
kill -9 <PID>
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Remove Jan from your Applications folder and Cache folder**
|
||||
|
||||
```bash
|
||||
make clean
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
This will remove all build artifacts and cached files:
|
||||
|
||||
- Delete Jan extension from your `~/jan/extensions` folder
|
||||
- Delete all `node_modules` in current folder
|
||||
- Clear Application cache in `~/Library/Caches/jan`
