--- title: Texttoimage emoji: 🖼 colorFrom: purple colorTo: red sdk: gradio sdk_version: 5.25.2 app_file: app.py pinned: false license: mit --- Skills Used to built this app: 🎨 AI/ML & Diffusion Model Skills Understanding diffusion models – how Stable Diffusion works. Using Hugging Face diffusers – loading and running pretrained pipelines. GPU/CPU optimization – switching between cuda and cpu, choosing float16 vs float32. Prompt engineering – crafting effective prompts for image generation. Negative prompting – removing unwanted artifacts from images. Random seed control – reproducibility in image generation. Model parameter tuning – adjusting guidance_scale, num_inference_steps. Memory optimization – handling large models (SDXL Turbo ~6GB). 🌐 Web App & UI Skills Gradio UI design – creating blocks, rows, sliders, and image outputs. Event handling in Gradio – binding run button, prompt submit, and examples. Custom styling (CSS) – controlling layout (#col-container). User experience (UX) design – hiding advanced settings but making them available. Interactive demos – gr.Examples, progress tracking. Frontend/backend linking – connecting UI inputs to model inference. ☁️ Deployment & DevOps Skills Hugging Face Spaces deployment – running apps in free/shared GPU environments. ZeroGPU understanding – optional GPU resource management. Creating requirements.txt – ensuring dependencies install correctly. Cloud CI/CD basics – automatic app rebuilds when pushing to repo. Containerization awareness – understanding how HF Spaces run your app in a container. 📊 Software Engineering Practices Testing & validation – making sure inference works across devices. Error handling – handling missing CUDA, API errors, busy servers. Performance benchmarking – checking image generation speed vs settings. Scalability awareness – how this app could scale from 1 to 1M users. Documentation & communication – writing clear README, comments, and usage guides. 🧑‍💻 Programming & Software Skills Using external libraries (pip/requirements) – managing dependencies like torch, diffusers, gradio. Debugging Python code – fixing errors (e.g., wrong gr.Text vs gr.Textbox). Version control (Git/GitHub) – managing source code and pushing to repos. Software architecture design – structuring functions (infer, UI) cleanly. Object-oriented programming basics – understanding pipelines and classes.
