# Demonstration Environment
The project demo app can be accessed from the developed [**KB-VQA HF Space**](https://huggingface.co/spaces/m7mdal7aj/KB-VQA), and the  entire code can be accessed from [here](https://huggingface.co/spaces/m7mdal7aj/KB-VQA/tree/main).
To run the demo app locally, from the root of the local code repository run `streamlit run app.py`. This will run the whole app. However, to use the **Run Inference Tool**, a GPU is required. 

## Project File Structure
Each main python module of the project is extensively documented to guide the reader on what the module role is and how to use it along with its corresponding classes and functions.

Below is the overall file structure of the project:
