ml5-library VS node

Important APIs - ml5 for in-browser detection, face-api that uses tensorflow-node to accelerate on-server detection. VueUse for a bunch of useful component tools like the QR Code generator. Yahoo's Gifshot for creating gif files in-browser etc.

> Have we seen any creator of a deep learning library, take a similar position if not stopping any support for anyone using it for mass surveillance?

ml5.js license:

> This license gives everyone as much permission to work with this software as possible as long as they comply with the ml5.js Code of Conduct [...]

ml5.js code of conduct:

> Do not: [...] Use ml5.js to build tools of mass surveillance and prediction to repress the rights of people

Not sure how enforcable this is but it exists.

"The library provides access to machine learning algorithms and models in the browser, building on top of TensorFlow.js with no other external dependencies."

(5) ml5.js

ML.js

I used ml5js.org , p5js.org and https://teachablemachine.withgoogle.com to train the Banana images. When you create a new image project on Teachable Machine, you can output the p5js and basically use it right out of the box - I customized js, css, and html from there.

Going forward: I'll be 100% into JavaScript. You can use JavaScript in so many fields nowadays. Websites React, Mobile Apps React Native, Machine Learning TensorFlow & ML5, Desktop Applications Electron, and of course the backend Node as well. It's kind of a no-brainer. Of course, they all have specific languages that are better, but for now, JavaScript is a bit of a catch-all.

Yeah they made ml5.js for this reason: https://ml5js.org/

I do feel like Google could do better communicating all of their different tools though. Their ecosystem is large and pretty confusing - they've got so many projects going on at once that it always seems like everyone gets fed up with them before they take a second pass and make them more friendly to newcomers.

Facebook seems to have taken a much more focused approach as you can see with PyTorch Live

From other comments, a lot of JavaScript developers who want to use TensorFlow had never heard of TensorFlow.js or ml5.js!

Visit the Node.js website and download the latest version of Node.js for your operating system.

Basic knowledge of Node.js and its environment setup. If you don't have Node.js installed on your system, make sure you download and install it from the official Node.js website.

To get started with Node.js 22.0.0, you can download the latest version from the official Node.js website. For those upgrading from an older version, it is recommended to test your existing applications for compatibility with the new release, particularly if you are using native modules or rely heavily on third-party npm packages.

Node.js (version 10 or higher)

Before we start, ensure that you have Node.js installed on your computer. This is necessary because we will use Node's package manager (npm) to create our Next.js project. If you need to install Node.js, you can download it from the official Node.js website.

Before starting a new project in react, you need to make sure that you have NodeJS install on your system. You can download the latest version of node at https://nodejs.org. Follow the instructions on the node website to do the installation.

Installing Node.js: Download and install Node.js from nodejs.org. Choose the version recommended for most users, unless you have specific needs that require the latest features or earlier compatibility.

You should have Nodejs installed on your laptop and if not, check the Node.js official website, and download/ install the latest and stable release.
