## Chat Interface

```python
# chatbot.py — Build a chatbot UI with streaming responses
import gradio as gr
from openai import OpenAI

client = OpenAI()

Image Classification

# image_classifier.py — Image classification demo with a pre-trained model

File Upload and Download

# file_processing.py — Handle file uploads and provide downloadable outputs
import gradio as gr
import pandas as pd

def analyze_csv(file) -> tuple[str, str]:
    df = pd.read_csv(file.name)
    summary = f"Rows: {len(df)}, Columns: {len(df.columns)}\n\n"

    summary += df.describe().to_string()

    output_path = "/tmp/summary.csv"
    df.describe().to_csv(output_path)
    return summary, output_path

demo = gr.Interface(
    fn=analyze_csv,
    inputs=gr.File(label="Upload CSV"),
    outputs=[gr.Textbox(label="Summary"), gr.File(label="Download Summary")],
)
demo.launch()

Authentication and Sharing

# auth_and_share.py — Add authentication and create a public share link
import gradio as gr

def secret_fn(text):
    return f"Secret processed: {text}"

demo = gr.Interface(fn=secret_fn, inputs="text", outputs="text")

# Launch with auth and public link
demo.launch(
    auth=("admin", "password123"),  # Simple auth
    share=True,                      # Creates a public URL (72h)
    server_port=7860,
)

Deploy to Hugging Face Spaces

API Access

# api_client.py — Use any Gradio app as an API
from gradio_client import Client

client = Client("username/my-demo")  # Or local URL
result = client.predict(
    "Hello world",     # Input text
    api_name="/predict",
)
print(result)

Key Concepts

gr.Interface: Simple function-to-UI mapping — one function, inputs, outputs
gr.Blocks: Flexible layout system for complex multi-step applications
gr.ChatInterface: Purpose-built chatbot UI with history management
Sharing: share=True creates a temporary public URL; Spaces for permanent hosting
Components: 30+ built-in components — Image, Audio, Video, File, DataFrame, Plot, etc.
API: Every Gradio app automatically gets a REST API at /api/
Queuing: Built-in request queuing for handling concurrent users
