Chatbot Interface with Flask and Hugging Face Transformers

Description

This project is a chatbot interface that integrates Hugging Face's Transformers library with a Flask backend. It serves a frontend built with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to interact with the user. The user can input text which is then processed by the Flask backend and fed into a pre-trained language model. The model's generated text is then sent back to the frontend and displayed.

Folder Structure

• frontend/: Contains all frontend HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files.

  • index.html: Main HTML file that provides the user interface.

• backend/: Contains Flask application and related backend code.

  • app.py: Main Flask application script.

• models/: Folder where pre-trained language models are saved.
