Hugging Face vs. Streamlit

Hugging Face is an excellent starting point when working on NLP projects; it is also great for prototyping and developing pipelines for NLP tasks, being those tasks general like embedding representation or specific, like SQUAD models and datasets. It needs more phonetic models or datasets to be as advantageous in that regard.

- Don't want to pay Tableau $1,000 / seat? Use Streamlit - Want fully custom views and navigation? Use Streamlit - Want access to Machine Learning and not just your dev team? Use Streamlit - Want to keep things internal and secure? Use Streamlit - Want your Data Science team to be able to crank out projects quickly? Use Streamlit - Sick of Jupyter Notebooks and Business Leaders not understanding them? Use Streamlit Our D.S. strategy has moved completely to delivering pages in Streamlit. I can hand an executive a Jupyter notebook and it'll get lost in translation. I can give them sign-in access to a page and they can answer all of their own "What-If?" questions! We've used Streamlit to productize our Data Science and Machine Learning capabilities.

• Has access to hundreds of models useful for any NLP usecase.
• Gives better accuracy on prediction tasks.
• Easy to test the model in the website itself to check the accuracy without actually implementing it.
• Has many algorithms for all the prediction problems.

Incentivized

• Incredibly Easy
• Customizable
• Quick and powerful

• Most of the Hugging face models are of big size, hence difficult to work if there is no access to high computational system like GPU.
• It’s good to have some visualization tool in hugging face for viewing model architecture.
• I recommend to implement hugging face lite version so that it can run on any system with less specifications.

• Recent Security issues (they quickly released an update to combat this though...)
• Requires a bit of HTML knowledge to really customize. If you're going quick, you don't need HTML though. Streamlit commands will pump your page out fast.

Hugging face is the latest technology built using transformers hence it gives better performance than other similar products.

I started using Streamlit when it first came out and thought it was really useful and powerful. A few years later and they've really hit their stride! The features / widgets / materials they provide have been well researched, well designed, and well implemented. I will take Streamlit to any future companies I go to as well as be a strong promoter wherever I'm currently at. It's free. It's easy to use. It is really powerful. Sure? You could go pay for a larger system but your Data Science team should be able to handle Streamlit easily. I'd argue a non-technical person spending a few weeks in python could pick up Streamlit really quickly.

• Reduced the time spent drastically in building complex transformer models
• Very quick deployment of demo apps, that reduces the time spent on making UIs

• I've scaled my team 2x since using Streamlit. We show off actual results that users can play with
• We're building a customer facing page that we're going to monetize.
• Incredible amounts of visibility into my team and what we're accomplishing.
