# Gradio

Gradio is a Python library for building interactive web UIs and ML demos. This skill covers the core API, patterns, and examples.

## Core Patterns

**Interface** (high-level): wraps a function with input/output components.

```python
import gradio as gr

def greet(name):
    return f"Hello {name}!"

gr.Interface(fn=greet, inputs="text", outputs="text").launch()
```

**Blocks** (low-level): flexible layout with explicit event wiring.

```python
import gradio as gr

with gr.Blocks() as demo:
    name = gr.Textbox(label="Name")
    output = gr.Textbox(label="Greeting")
    btn = gr.Button("Greet")
    btn.click(fn=lambda n: f"Hello {n}!", inputs=name, outputs=output)

demo.launch()
```

**ChatInterface**: high-level wrapper for chatbot UIs.

```python
import gradio as gr

def respond(message, history):
    return f"You said: {message}"

gr.ChatInterface(fn=respond).launch()
```

Creates a component with arbitrary HTML.


## Custom HTML Components

If a task requires significant customization of an existing component or a component that doesn't exist in Gradio, you can create one with `gr.HTML`. It supports `html_template` (with `${}` JS expressions and `{{}}` Handlebars syntax), `css_template` for scoped styles, and `js_on_load` for interactivity — where `props.value` updates the component value and `trigger('event_name')` fires Gradio events. For reuse, subclass `gr.HTML` and define `api_info()` for API/MCP support. See the [full guide](https://www.gradio.app/guides/custom-HTML-components).

Here's an example that shows how to create and use these kinds of components:

```python
import gradio as gr

class StarRating(gr.HTML):
    def __init__(self, label, value=0, **kwargs):
        html_template = """
        <h2>${label} rating:</h2>
        ${Array.from({length: 5}, (_, i) => `<img class='${i < value ? '' : 'faded'}' src='https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/d/df/Award-star-gold-3d.svg'>`).join('')}
        """
