The huggingface_hub is a client library to interact with the Hugging Face Hub. The Hugging Face Hub is a platform with over 2M models, 500K datasets, and 200K demos in which people can easily collaborate in their ML workflows. The Hub works as a central place where anyone can share, explore, discover, and experiment with open-source Machine Learning.

With huggingface_hub, you can easily download and upload models, extract useful information from the Hub, and do much more. Some example use cases:

Downloading and caching files from a Hub repository.
Creating repositories and uploading an updated model every few epochs.
Extract metadata from all models that match certain criteria (e.g. models for text-classification).
List all files from a specific repository.
