+Embedchain offers a Streamlit template to facilitate the development of RAG chatbot applications in just three easy steps.
+
+Follow the instructions given below to deploy your first application quickly:
+
+## Step-1: Create RAG app
+
+We provide a command line utility called `ec` in embedchain that inherits the template for `gradio.app` platform and help you deploy the app. Follow the instructions to create a gradio.app app using the template provided:
+
+```bash Install embedchain
+pip install embedchain
+```
+
+```bash Create application
+mkdir my-rag-app
+ec create --template=gradio.app
+```
+
+This will generate a directory structure like this:
+
+```bash
+├── app.py
+├── embedchain.json
+└── requirements.txt
+```
+
+Feel free to edit the files as required.
+- `app.py`: Contains API app code
+- `embedchain.json`: Contains embedchain specific configuration for deployment (you don't need to configure this)
+- `requirements.txt`: Contains python dependencies for your application
+
+## Step-2: Test app locally
+
+You can run the app locally by simply doing:
+
+```bash Run locally
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+ec dev
+```
+
+## Step-3: Deploy to gradio.app
+
+```bash Deploy to gradio.app
+ec deploy
+```
+
+This will run `gradio deploy` which will prompt you questions and deploy your app directly to huggingface spaces.

+description: 'Deploy your RAG application to huggingface.co platform'
+---
+
+With Embedchain, you can directly host your apps in just three steps to huggingface spaces where you can view and deploy your app to the world.
+
+We support two types of deployment to huggingface spaces:
+
+<CardGroup cols={2}>
+    <Card title="" href="#using-streamlit-io">
+        Streamlit.io
+    </Card>
+    <Card title="" href="#using-gradio-app">
+        Gradio.app
+    </Card>
+</CardGroup>
+
+## Using streamlit.io
+
+### Step 1: Create a new RAG app
+
+Create a new RAG app using the following command:
+
+```bash
+mkdir my-rag-app
+ec create --template=hf/streamlit.io # inside my-rag-app directory
+```
+
+When you run this for the first time, you'll be asked to login to huggingface.co. Once you login, you'll need to create a **write** token. You can create a write token by going to [huggingface.co settings](https://huggingface.co/settings/token). Once you create a token, you'll be asked to enter the token in the terminal.
+
+This will also create an `embedchain.json` file in your app directory. Add a `name` key into the `embedchain.json` file. This will be the "repo-name" of your app in huggingface spaces.
+
+```json embedchain.json
+{
+    "name": "my-rag-app",
+    "provider": "hf/streamlit.io"
+}
+```
+
+### Step-2: Test app locally
+
+You can run the app locally by simply doing:
+
+```bash Run locally
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+ec dev
+```
+
+### Step-3: Deploy to huggingface spaces
+
+```bash Deploy to huggingface spaces
+ec deploy
+```
+
+This will deploy your app to huggingface spaces. You can view your app at `https://huggingface.co/spaces/<your-username>/my-rag-app`. This will get prompted in the terminal once the app is deployed.
+
+## Using gradio.app
+
+Similar to streamlit.io, you can deploy your app to gradio.app in just three steps.
+
+### Step 1: Create a new RAG app
+
+Create a new RAG app using the following command:
+
+```bash
+mkdir my-rag-app
+ec create --template=hf/gradio.app # inside my-rag-app directory
+```
+
+When you run this for the first time, you'll be asked to login to huggingface.co. Once you login, you'll need to create a **write** token. You can create a write token by going to [huggingface.co settings](https://huggingface.co/settings/token). Once you create a token, you'll be asked to enter the token in the terminal.
+
+This will also create an `embedchain.json` file in your app directory. Add a `name` key into the `embedchain.json` file. This will be the "repo-name" of your app in huggingface spaces.
+
+```json embedchain.json
+{
+    "name": "my-rag-app",
+    "provider": "hf/gradio.app"
+}
+```
+
+### Step-2: Test app locally
+
+You can run the app locally by simply doing:
+
+```bash Run locally
+pip install -r requirements.txt
+ec dev
+```
+
+### Step-3: Deploy to huggingface spaces
+
+```bash Deploy to huggingface spaces
+ec deploy
+```
+
+This will deploy your app to huggingface spaces. You can view your app at `https://huggingface.co/spaces/<your-username>/my-rag-app`. This will get prompted in the terminal once the app is deployed.
