Instruction-tuning Dataset — Alpaca Format (JSONL)
An instruction-tuning dataset in the Alpaca JSONL format — 20 instruction / input / output triples covering small transformations, extraction, and factual answers. Fully synthetic; a fixture for supervised fine-tuning pipelines.

What is a .jsonl file?
JSONL (JSON Lines) is a text format where each line is a complete, independent JSON value, allowing records to be streamed and appended without parsing the whole file. It is not itself a JSON array and each line must stand alone. It is common in logging, machine learning datasets, and data pipelines.
How to use this file
Use an example JSONL to test line-by-line streaming parsers, append-and-resume ingestion, and batch pipelines that process one record per line.
Code examples
import json
with open("instructions.jsonl") as f:
rows = [json.loads(line) for line in f]
print(len(rows), rows[0])Related files
