About
Arabic-centric flagship of the Fanar 2.0 release (Mar 2026), continually pretrained from google/gemma-3-27b-pt on ~166B Arabic, English and code tokens with 32K context. It adds native Arabic reasoning traces, selective thinking mode and tool calling. This repo is text-in/text-out; image generation, image understanding and poetry are separate Fanar-2 models.
