About

What it is: Browser, titled Model Browser on its page, is a static web page for looking through a collection of models. Its repository holds many data files, a gallery page and a comparison script. It names one dataset, malcolmrey/samples. You can open it in the browser with nothing to install.

Who it suits: It suits people who want to look through a model collection in one place, and developers who want to see how a data-driven static page is organised.

Industry | Who uses it | How they use it | Example
AI art | Hobbyists | Look through a collection of models | Open the gallery page
Research | Analysts | Study how models are described and tagged | Read the tag and profile data files
Web development | Front-end developers | See how a static page is driven by data files | Read comparator.js and index.html
Curation | Collection maintainers | Check how thumbnails and links are organised | Look at the thumbnail data files

Skip it if you need documentation, since the record gives only the page title and its file list.

Where to use it:

• A web browser, on the Space's page at Hugging Face
• A local copy of the files on Windows, macOS or Linux, opened from index.html

Use case | Who | What they get back
Browse the collection | Hobbyists | A page of models with thumbnails
Compare entries | Analysts | A comparison view from the comparator script
Study the data | Developers | JSON and script data files you can read

How to set it up: The online page needs nothing. Python is needed only to fetch the files for a local copy.

• A web browser
• Python and pip, only for a local copy
• Windows, macOS or Linux for the local copy

1. Install the Hugging Face hub library.
2. Download the Space's files into a folder named browser.
3. Move into that folder.
4. Load index.html in a web browser.

pip install -U huggingface_hub
hf download malcolmrey/browser --repo-type space --local-dir browser
cd browser

How to use it: Open the Space's page and look through what it shows. The source does not describe the controls, so use whatever the page offers. The repository also has a separate gallery page.

cd browser

Run that from the folder where you downloaded the files, then load index.html in your browser.

Example: You open the page and look through the entries, then open the gallery page to see the pictures in a larger layout.

For newcomers and experts: Open the page and scroll through it. Nothing needs installing, and everything runs in the browser.

The page is static HTML driven by data files, in both script and JSON form. The repository holds data files named for filenames, thumbnails, people profiles, tags, classifications and links. It also holds files with Hugging Face and Civitai in their names. A comparator script and a gallery page sit beside index.html. The record does not describe how these files fit together.

Open index.html
The page reads its data files
Entries show with thumbnails and tags
Open the gallery or compare entries

Good to know:

• Gaps: The source gives only a title and a file list, so the contents and rules of the collection are not described here.
• License: cc0-1.
• Cost to run: none named.
• Data it reaches: The data files in the repository. The record names one dataset, malcolmrey/samples.
