Simple Automations demo project

This quick tutorial shows users how to train and test a model using automations with W&B.

Some thoughts:

• Training script takes ~10 minutes to run. Not a blocker, but would be nice if we had a shorter training script.
• In W&B Report, I would call out:
  • installing the requirements.txt right after we tell them to clone it.
  • Order of operations is key. I confused myself for a minute with whether or not I needed to launch the job before making an automation (like people are normally accustomed to).
    • Might be good to call out that queues are entity scoped.
  • Not sure if this is expected behavior, or if I am doing it wrong, but the automation page is blank, even when I create an automation?
  • I'd highlight where to go in the W&B App to see their progress, complete necessary steps.
  • Might be worth mentioning they need to have a queue set up? Perhaps link to Launch docs were applicable.

Thank you Noah!

Training script time: I'm updating the train.py to have a train_set config param that is set by default to 2560. This means there will only be 20 steps of training instead of 470.

requirements.txt: Done, I've updated the report

Confirming new training script runs in less than 30s

I'm adding logging to get the requirements.txt file since I turned off github repo logging so I could name the job a custom name
