Introducing Prodigy-HF
Prodigy is an annotation tool made by Explosion, a company well known as the creators of spaCy. It's a fully scriptable product with a large community around it. The product has many features, including tight integration with spaCy and active learning capabilities. But the main feature of the product is that it is programmatically customizable with Python.
To foster this customisability, Explosion has started releasing plugins. These plugins integrate with third-party tools in an open way that encourages users to work on bespoke annotation workflows. However, one customization specifically deserves to be celebrated explicitly. Last week, Explosion introduced Prodigy-HF, which offers code recipes that directly integrate with the Hugging Face stack. It's been a much-requested feature on the Prodigy support forum, so we're super excited to have it out there.
