Lighthouse Application

There are two versions of this application - a standalone Python application, and a version running in a notebook.

• lighthouse.ipynb - Jupyter Notebook version
• lighthouse.py - Python version
• lighthouses.json - Used for local storage by the lighthouse application. Should be empty to start.

Gradio, an accessible library for visualising machine learning processes developed by HuggingFace, is used as a way to provide a basic interface. You should not need to develop a complex understanding of this library for this assignment, but the documentation is available here: Gradio Docs

By default, the jupyter notebook environment runs version 3.11.7 of Python - you should not run into problems with other versions of Python, but be aware that different versions of Python and different interpreters have their own functionalities.

To run this app in a notebook:

1. Run the bash cell to install the gradio library. You should only need to do this once.

To run this app locally:

1. In your terminal, install Gradio: pip install gradio
2. Run from your terminal: python lighthouse.py
