<p>🤗 xet-core - xet client tech, used in <a target="_blank" href="https://github.com/huggingface/huggingface_hub/">huggingface_hub</a></p>
</h3>
## Welcome
xet-core enables huggingface_hub to utilize xet storage for uploading and downloading to HF Hub. Xet storage provides chunk-based deduplication, efficient storage/retrieval with local disk caching, and backwards compatibility with Git LFS. This library is not meant to be used directly, and is instead intended to be used from [huggingface_hub](https://pypi.org/project/huggingface-hub).
## Key features
♻ **chunk-based deduplication implementation**: avoid transferring and storing chunks that are shared across binary files (models, datasets, etc).
🤗 **Python bindings**: bindings for [huggingface_hub](https://github.com/huggingface/huggingface_hub/) package.
↔ **network communications**: concurrent communication to HF Hub Xet backend services (CAS).
🔖 **local disk caching**: chunk-based cache that sits alongside the existing [huggingface_hub disk cache](https://huggingface.co/docs/huggingface_hub/guides/manage-cache).
