Body

Why I think github models are a good idea?

• Github models are offering developers a centralized location to access various models which makes things easier for developers, who, without github models would have to needlessly search through thier browser for the same.

• This is a great tool for what its designed for, which is experimenting around.

Things that should be improved

I haven't encountered any glitches or bugs yet. However, the interface could be made to be a little more user friendly. If someone is using the feature for the first time ever, without having seen any tutorial videos or reading any guides, the interface is not that intuitive. For example, they would not understand what "playground" means. Even small improvements like adding tooltips to such buttons, could make the interface a lot more better. Another feature I would suggest is adding models with the capacity of doing image classification based tasks if possible.

Hi Scorpius1724,

Excellent points! Thoroughly in agreement that models on GitHub are an excellent avenue for developers to tinker with, but I can appreciate how an end-user interface could be a tad overwhelming.

• Tooltips: Providing tooltips regarding what features like a "playground" or other buttons would go a long way toward making the interface friendlier and more intuitive to use. Users who might not be too familiar with the terminology would feel right at home.

• Smarter UI: Smaller UI enhancements, like better labeling or guides, might make it easier for new users to get comfortable without seeking outside tutorials.

• Image Classification Models: I thought your suggestion of adding models that are capable of image classification was outstanding! If the type of models is expanded, this would further open up more use cases for developers to experiment with different tasks.

Thanks for sharing your considerations! Hope that GitHub considers these improvements in view of a better user experience.
