+### `Modelfile`s in [ollama.ai/library][1]
+
+There are two ways to view `Modelfile`s underlying the models in [ollama.ai/library][1]:
+
+- Option 1: view a details page from a model's tags page:
+ 1. Go to a particular model's tags (e.g. https://ollama.ai/library/llama2/tags)
+ 2. Click on a tag (e.g. https://ollama.ai/library/llama2:13b)
+ 3. Scroll down to "Layers"
+ - Note: if the [`FROM` instruction](#from-required) is not present,
+ it means the model was created from a local file
+- Option 2: use `ollama show` to print the `Modelfile` like so:
+
+ ```bash
+ > ollama show --modelfile llama2:13b
+ # Modelfile generated by "ollama show"
+ # To build a new Modelfile based on this one, replace the FROM line with:
+ # FROM llama2:13b
+

- the **`Modelfile` is not case sensitive**. In the examples, we use uppercase for instructions to make it easier to distinguish it from arguments.
- Instructions can be in any order. In the examples, we start with FROM instruction to keep it easily readable.
