Mozilla champions an open, accessible Internet where people have the reins. We welcome these recent amazing new AI breakthroughs.
However, with substantial corporate dollars being invested into AI R&D, it's unclear for both junior and senior engineers new to the scene to identify which paths are the ones that lead to sustainable open software. We've seen this story before.
Mozilla's efforts in AI are more than just technical - they're a call to action and unity across the currently fragmented open source AI Community.
Our AI Guide is a living, breathing resource, rooted in collaboration and community input for experts and newcomers alike, and we invite you to build alongside us.
We are currently welcoming contributions for:
- Fine-tuning LLMs
- Building LLMs from scratch
- Multi-modal LLMs
- Audio & Video models
- Image models
PRs are open. Email ai-guide@mozilla.com if you need to reach us.
Installation
Getting Started
This project is a Static webpage with HTML, CSS and JS. We use Webpack to bundle everything to the dist/ folder. This project also uses Nunjucks Templates to enable the use of templating in this project. To convert Nunjucks templates to HTML, we use the html-bundler-webpack-plugin.
Installation
These instruction assume you have NodeJS installed.
To build AI Guide from source and run the site locally, you can clone the repo from GitHub:
npm install
Running npm install will install the NPM dependencies.
Make it run
Build the site and start the web server with:
npm start
That will run the webpack dev server.
View the site at http://localhost:8000/
Build static HTML files
npm run build
The Webpack will output all HTML files to a folder called dist.
AI Guide-specific instructions
The AI Guide is hosted in this repo, and uses a slightly different Markdown-flavored templating system, but the same npm steps above. It also uses Tailwind for CSS and doesn't use Protocol.
Content for the guide is generated from Markdown files in templates/ai/content using scripts in tools/.
To generate fresh content:
tools/build_ai_guide.sh
Note that pages in /pages/ai/content should always be generated using the script above.
To run the server:
tools/build_ai_guide.sh
npx tailwindcss -w
npm run start
Go to /
Folder Hierarchy
All Nunjucks files are either located in the templates/ folder or the pages/ folder.
The templates/ folder contains base templates that can be extended, or partials, which can be included in the files in the pages/ folder.
The pages/ folder contains the Nunjucks files which will be compiled to HTML and used on the MIECO site.
