If you don’t mind me giving you a suggestion. An easy way to get started is by using Unsloth’s Google Colab notebooks. Just by inspecting the code of some of their many notebooks you can get a solid starting point about the fine-tunneling steps, including the dataset formats. https://unsloth.ai

Thank you I'll give this a test
I see this is for smaller models. Can I use this as well for ~100B parameter LLM's?
Would prefer to do locally if I can; I do have access to hardware to do this
Yes, you can. These notebooks use smaller models only to take advantage of the Tesla T4 (free tier). You can mod the notebook and use it locally. You can use their bigger models or any other that you want when you feel more comfortable with the different model templates. https://docs.unsloth.ai/get-started/all-our-models
Thank you for your follow up answers; much appreciated🦾
