## About

### What it is

This Space is a browser demo named IOPaint-LaMA. Going by the name, it pairs the IOPaint tool with the LaMA model, which points to inpainting, the job of removing or filling in part of a picture. The README adds nothing beyond a link to the Spaces configuration reference.

### Who it suits

It suits designers, photographers and hobbyists who want to try cleaning up a picture, and developers who want to read a small Gradio app with its own page and style files.

| Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Photography | Photographers | Try removing unwanted objects from a photo | Test a quick cleanup on a travel picture |
| Design | Graphic designers | Fix up an image before a layout | Clean a spot out of a product picture |
| E-commerce | Shop owners | Tidy product photos | Remove a stray item from the background |
| Software | Developers | Read a small app with custom HTML and CSS | Open app.py, index.html and style.css |

You can skip it if you need a documented editor with batch tools, since the README holds no usage notes.

### Where to use it

- A web browser: open the Space page on Hugging Face
- Windows, macOS or Linux: run a copy with Python

| Use case | Who | What they get back |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Clean up a picture | Photographers and designers | An edited version with the chosen area changed |
| Try the tool online | Anyone curious | A running page with nothing to install |
| Run your own copy | Developers | The same app on your own computer |

### How to set it up

The online page needs nothing. A local copy needs Python and the packages in requirements.txt.

- A web browser for the online demo
- Python for a local copy
- The packages listed in requirements.txt

1. To use it online, open the Space page on Hugging Face.
2. To run a copy, install the Hugging Face hub package.
3. Download the Space into a local folder.
4. Move into the folder and install Gradio 3.9.1 and the listed packages.
5. Start the app.

```sh
pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download Sanster/iopaint-lama --repo-type space --local-dir iopaint-lama
cd iopaint-lama
pip install gradio==3.9.1
pip install -r requirements.txt
python app.py
```

### How to use it

Start the app from its folder, or open the Space online. Add a picture and follow the controls the page shows to mark what you want changed, then run it. Try a small change first.

```sh
python app.py
```

### Example

You add a photo and mark a small unwanted object. The page returns the photo with that area filled in, and you can compare it with the original.

### For newcomers and experts

If you are new to this, try one easy picture with a clear background and a small area to change. That shows quickly what the tool can do.

If you know the field, the repository is small: an app file, a requirements list, an HTML page and a stylesheet. It runs on Hugging Face's basic CPU hardware and relies on an old Gradio release, 3.9.1, so a local copy should keep that version.

You add a picture → You mark the area to change → The app runs the model → You get the edited picture

### Good to know

The README is empty of notes, so the page and app.py hold the real details. The old Gradio version may limit which features work.

- License: apache-2
- Cost to run: none named
- Data it reaches: the pictures you give it
