This tutorial walks through integrating a style transfer model into an iOS React Native app using ExecuTorch with the CoreML backend. Steps covered include exporting a PyTorch model to a .pte file, building and linking the ExecuTorch library in Xcode, writing Objective-C++ native module code to load the model, preparing input tensors from image data, running inference via the forward() method, and returning the processed image URI back to JavaScript. ## Full article daily.dev links to this article rather than hosting it.
