# Learning Pipelines
Use this route for training or evaluating RL, imitation-learning, VLA, or
fusion policies; preparing an IL dataset; selecting a runner; loading a
checkpoint; or debugging normalization and policy/environment contracts.
## Route
1. Select the family in [workflows.md](references/workflows.md): CleanRL,
FastTD3, SB3, RSL-RL, IL runner/policy, VLA adapter, or fusion.
2. Install only the required extras. `learn` covers many learning dependencies;
`vla` adds much larger TensorFlow/LeRobot/Transformers stacks. Individual
policy folders can still have stricter versions.
3. Validate task registration, observation/action shapes, dataset schema, and a
tiny CPU forward pass before allocating GPUs or starting data downloads.
4. Read [data-and-checkpoints.md](references/data-and-checkpoints.md) before
conversion, resume, or evaluation; checkpoint normalization state and config
are part of the policy contract.
5. Use [troubleshooting.md](references/troubleshooting.md) for optional imports,
device selection, stale normalization, data layout, and evaluation drift.
Long training, external model/data acquisition, trackers, and policy servers are
never default smoke tests. State the exact task, simulator, device, dataset,
checkpoint, and backend actually exercised.
