Lightning App example for nllb (coming soon)

[williamFalcon]

@myleott @alexeib amazing work once again! Would love to collaborate with you guys to build a Lightning App (a new class available in Lightning) so people can your work as a template for ML systems they might want to build. (here's an example of a Lightning App with OpenAI Clip to show how to build a meaningful ML system end-to-end)

Hey @williamFalcon, thanks for the proposal! I am already in touch with Thomas (Chaton) and once we have an early release of fairseq v2, we can definitely consider having a demo Lightning App. You can check out our v2 announcement in #4493.

On the organizational side I recently transitioned from PyTorch to FAIR and right now leading our fairseq modernization effort. @alexeib is also pretty much involved in the project. Unfortunately @myleott is not at Meta anymore, but he is obviously more than welcome to contribute to the project anytime he wants.
