Made by BlinkDL

## About

### What it is

This Space is a Gradio chatbot demo for RWKV models, made by BlinkDL. You open it in a browser and chat with an RWKV model without installing anything. The repository holds the app, a CUDA folder, a helper file for the RWKV7 model and a list of Python packages.

### Who it suits

It suits people who want to try an RWKV model in a chat window, and developers who want the demo's code as a starting point.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Research | Language model researchers | Chat with an RWKV model to see how it responds | Try a few prompts on the hosted page |
| Software | Developers | Read app.py and the RWKV7 helper to see how the demo is wired | Copy the Space and change the chat interface |
| Education | Students of language models | Use the hosted chat to see a non-transformer style model in action | Compare it with another chat model |

You can skip it if you want a finished assistant, since this is a model demo and its code.

### Where to use it

- A web browser: open the Space page on Hugging Face, where it runs on zero-a10g hardware.
- Windows, macOS or Linux: run a copy with Python 3.12.

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Chat with the model | Anyone curious | Replies from an RWKV model in the browser |
| Study the code | Developers | The app, the CUDA folder and an RWKV7 helper file |
| Run a private copy | Developers | A copy that starts with python app.py |

### How to set it up

The hosted page needs nothing from you. A local copy needs these things first. The repository does not say what hardware a local copy needs.

- Python 3.12 on Windows, macOS or Linux.
- pip, which installs the packages.

1. Install the huggingface\_hub package with pip.
2. Download the Space's files into a folder with the hf command.
3. Move into that folder.
4. Install Gradio 6.26.0, then the packages listed in requirements.txt.
5. Start the app with Python.

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download BlinkDL/RWKV-Gradio-4 --repo-type space --local-dir RWKV-Gradio-4
cd RWKV-Gradio-4
pip install gradio==6.26.0
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py
```

### How to use it

Online, open the Space page and chat there. On your own computer, run the last command above inside the downloaded folder and use the chat it starts.

| Tool | What it does |
| --- | --- |
| app.py | Starts the Gradio chat demo |
| rwkv7\_fast\_v3a.py | A helper file named for the RWKV7 model |
| cuda | A folder of CUDA code |
| requirements.txt | Lists the Python packages the app needs |

### Example

You open the Space page and type a short question into the chat box. An RWKV model answers in the same window. Running python app.py in your own copy gives you the same chat from your machine.

### For newcomers and experts

If you are new, start with the hosted chat and send a few short messages. Nothing needs installing. Once that feels familiar, copy the Space to your computer.

If you know the field, the Space uses Gradio 6.26.0 on Python 3.12 and runs on ZeroGPU. It has a CUDA folder and an RWKV7 helper file, and it names two model repositories from BlinkDL. The README is the standard chatbot template, so it says little about the models.

Open the Space or run app.py → Gradio starts the chat interface → You chat with the RWKV model

### Good to know

The README is a template text and does not describe the models, their sizes or their limits.

## About

What it is: This Space is a Gradio chatbot demo for RWKV models, made by BlinkDL. You open it in a browser and chat with an RWKV model without installing anything. The repository holds the app, a CUDA folder, a helper file for the RWKV7 model and a list of Python packages.

```

You can skip it if you want a finished assistant, since this is a model demo and its code.

Where to use it:

- A web browser: open the Space page on Hugging Face, where it runs on zero-a10g hardware.
- Windows, macOS or Linux: run a copy with Python 3.12.

```table
Use case | Who | What they get back

How to set it up: The hosted page needs nothing from you. A local copy needs these things first. The repository does not say what hardware a local copy needs.

- Python 3.12 on Windows, macOS or Linux.
- pip, which installs the packages.

1. Install the huggingface_hub package with pip.
2. Download the Space's files into a folder with the hf command.
3. Move into that folder.
4. Install Gradio 6.26.0, then the packages listed in requirements.txt.
5. Start the app with Python.

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download BlinkDL/RWKV-Gradio-4 --repo-type space --local-dir RWKV-Gradio-4
cd RWKV-Gradio-4
pip install gradio==6.26.0
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py
```

How to use it: Online, open the Space page and chat there. On your own computer, run the last command above inside the downloaded folder and use the chat it starts.

```table
Tool | What it does
app.py | Starts the Gradio chat demo
rwkv7_fast_v3a.py | A helper file named for the RWKV7 model
cuda | A folder of CUDA code
requirements.txt | Lists the Python packages the app needs
```
