Modelcard pretty HTML

[quancore]

HI, I am using model card function right now for our local model pipeline but it just outputs an md file and no options to output HTML. If I convert md file to HTML, it is a super dull HTML face. Would it be possible to export a visually pleasing, fully functional model card like Huggingface has on the website?

Hi @quancore :wave: What would be your use case to export a modelcard as HTML? The huggingface_hub main purpose is to interact with the Huggingface Hub. Its modelcard module allows you to create, edit and upload model cards and dataset cards. Those cards are README files stored in the repos, hence the markdown style. I'm not sure a markdown renderer directly in huggingface_hub really makes much sense as some packages already exist for that (not only in Python). What would be the goal of having HF-rendering style but not storing the cards on the Hub?

So for our use-case, we are using huggingface models but we are creating our on model cards rather than pushing and storing them on the hub. It would be a nice feature if the library directly export HTML rather than depending on the hub.

I'm not sure that's something we want to support, or at least not right now. I'll still ping @julien-c @Pierrci for visibility

do you have an example of CSS you would like applied, @quancore ?

[quancore]

@julien-c hey, thank you for the answer. I implemented a very basic HTML conversation using python markdown and its extension with bootstrap CSS and I think it seems okay. I used bootstrap.
