+# How to become a core contributor
+
+Thanks for your interest in joining the Lightning team! We’re a rapidly growing project which is poised to become the go-to framework for DL researchers! 
+We're currently recruiting for a team of 5 core maintainers. 
+
+As a core maintainer you will have a strong say in the direction of the project. Big changes will require a majority of maintainers to agree.
+
+### Code of conduct  
+First and foremost, you'll be evaluated against [these core values](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/blob/master/.github/CONTRIBUTING.md). Any code we commit or feature we add needs to align with those core values.
+
+### The bar for joining the team   
+Lightning is being used to solve really hard problems at the top AI labs in the world. As such, the bar for adding team members is extremely high. Candidates must have solid engineering skills, have a good eye for user experience, and must be a power user of Lightning and PyTorch.
+
+With that said, the Lightning team will be diverse and a reflection of an inclusive AI community. You don't have to be an engineer to conntribute! Scientists with great usability intuition and PyTorch ninja skills are welcomed!
+
+### Responsibilities:
+The responsibilities mainly revolve around 3 things.
+
+#### Github issues
+- Here we want to help users have an amazing experience. These range from questions from new people getting into DL to questions from researchers about doing something esoteric with Lightning
+Often, these issues require some sort of bug fix, document clarification or new functionality to be scoped out.
+
+- To become a core member you must resolve at least 10 Github issues which align with the API design goals for Lightning. By the end of these 10 issues I should feel comfortable in the way you answer user questions
+Pleasant/helpful tone.
+
+- Can abstract from that issue or bug into functionality that might solve other related issues or makes the platform more flexible.
+
+- Don’t make users feel like they don’t know what they’re doing. We’re here to help and to make everyone’s experience delightful.
+
+#### Pull requests
+
+- Here we need to ensure the code that enters Lightning is high quality. For each PR we need to:
+- Make sure code coverage does not decrease
+- Documents are updated
+- Code is elegant and simple
+- Code is NOT overly engineered or hard to read
+- Ask yourself, could a non-engineer understand what’s happening here?
+- Make sure new tests are written
+- Is this NECESSARY for Lightning? There are some PRs which are just purely about adding engineering complexity which have no place in Lightning. 
+Guidance
+- Some other PRs are for people who are wanting to get involved and add something unnecessary. We do want their help though! So don’t approve the PR, but direct them to a Github issue that they might be interested in helping with instead!
+- To be considered for core contributor, please review 10 PRs and help the authors land it on master. Once you've finished the review, ping me 
+for a sanity check. At the end of 10 PRs if your PR reviews are inline with expectations described above, then you can merge PRs on your own going forward,
+otherwise we'll do a few more until we're both comfortable :)
+
+#### Project directions
+There are some big decisions which the project must make. For these I expect core contributors to have something meaningful to add if it’s their area of expertise.
+
+#### Diversity
+Lightning should reflect the broader community it serves. As such we should have scientists/researchers from 
+different fields contributing!   
+
+The first 5 core contributors will fit this profile. Thus if you overlap strongly with experiences and expertise as someone else on the team, you might have to wait until the next set of contributors are added.
+
+#### Summary: Requirements to apply
+- Solve 10 Github issues. The goal is to be inline with expectations for solving issues by the last one so you can do them on your own. If not, I might ask you to solve a few more specific ones.
+- Do 10 PR reviews. The goal is to be inline with expectations for solving issues by the last one so you can do them on your own. If not, I might ask you to solve a few more specific ones.
+
+If you want to be considered, ping me on gitter and start [tracking your progress here](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/15D58gp8DvI0Z6qbbYVRuaWioiwzafcP58-UlbuO_CMU/edit?usp=sharing).

+# Contributor Covenant Code of Conduct
+
+## Our Pledge
+
+In the interest of fostering an open and welcoming environment, we as
+contributors and maintainers pledge to making participation in our project and
+our community a harassment-free experience for everyone, regardless of age, body
+size, disability, ethnicity, sex characteristics, gender identity and expression,
+level of experience, education, socio-economic status, nationality, personal
+appearance, race, religion, or sexual identity and orientation.
+
+## Our Standards
+
+Examples of behavior that contributes to creating a positive environment
+include:
+
+* Using welcoming and inclusive language
+* Being respectful of differing viewpoints and experiences
+* Gracefully accepting constructive criticism
+* Focusing on what is best for the community
+* Showing empathy towards other community members
+
+Examples of unacceptable behavior by participants include:
+
+* The use of sexualized language or imagery and unwelcome sexual attention or
+ advances
+* Trolling, insulting/derogatory comments, and personal or political attacks
+* Public or private harassment
+* Publishing others' private information, such as a physical or electronic
+ address, without explicit permission
+* Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a
+ professional setting
+
+## Our Responsibilities
+
+Project maintainers are responsible for clarifying the standards of acceptable
+behavior and are expected to take appropriate and fair corrective action in
+response to any instances of unacceptable behavior.
+
+Project maintainers have the right and responsibility to remove, edit, or
+reject comments, commits, code, wiki edits, issues, and other contributions
+that are not aligned to this Code of Conduct, or to ban temporarily or
+permanently any contributor for other behaviors that they deem inappropriate,
+threatening, offensive, or harmful.
+
+## Scope
+
+This Code of Conduct applies both within project spaces and in public spaces
+when an individual is representing the project or its community. Examples of
+representing a project or community include using an official project e-mail
+address, posting via an official social media account, or acting as an appointed
+representative at an online or offline event. Representation of a project may be
+further defined and clarified by project maintainers.
+
+## Enforcement
+
+Instances of abusive, harassing, or otherwise unacceptable behavior may be
+reported by contacting the project team at waf2107@columbia.edu. All
+complaints will be reviewed and investigated and will result in a response that
+is deemed necessary and appropriate to the circumstances. The project team is
+obligated to maintain confidentiality with regard to the reporter of an incident.
+Further details of specific enforcement policies may be posted separately.
+
+Project maintainers who do not follow or enforce the Code of Conduct in good
+faith may face temporary or permanent repercussions as determined by other
+members of the project's leadership.

+# Contributing    
+Welcome to the PyTorch Lightning community! We're building the most advanced research platform on the planet to implement the latest, best practices that the amazing PyTorch team rolls out!   
+
+## Main Core Value: One less thing to remember    
+Simplify the API as much as possible from the user perspective. Any additions or improvements should minimize things the user needs to remember.   
+
+For example: One benefit of the validation_step is that the user doesn't have to remember to set the model to .eval(). This avoids all sorts of subtle errors the user could make.  
+
+## Lightning Design Principles   
+We encourage all sorts of contributions you're interested in adding! When coding for lightning, please follow these principles.    
+#### No PyTorch Interference   
+We don't want to add any abstractions on top of pure PyTorch. This gives researchers all the control they need without having to learn yet another framework.    
+
+#### Simple Internal Code    
+It's useful for users to look at the code and understand very quickly what's happening. Many users won't be engineers. Thus we need to value clear, simple code over condensed ninja moves. While that's super cool, this isn't the project for that :)      
+
+#### Force User Decisions To Best Practices    
+There are 1,000 ways to do something. However, something eventually becomes standard practice that everyone does. Thus we pick one way of doing it and force everyone to do it this way. A good example is accumulated gradients. There are many ways to implement, we just pick one and force users to use that one. A bad forced decision would be to make users use a specific library to do something.    
+
+When something becomes a best practice, we add it to the framework. This likely looks like code in utils or in the model file that everyone keeps adding over and over again across projects. When this happens, bring that code inside the trainer and add a flag for it.
+
+#### Simple External API    
+What makes sense to you may not make sense to others. Create an issue with an API change suggestion and validate that it makes sense for others. Treat code changes how you treat a startup: validate that it's a needed feature, then add if it makes sense for many people. 
+
+#### Backward-compatible API   
+We all hate updating our deep learning packages because we don't want to refactor a bunch of stuff. In Lightning, we make sure every change we make which could break an API is backwards compatible with good deprecation warnings.
+
+You shouldn't be afraid to upgrade Lightning :)
+
+#### Gain User Trust    
+As a researcher you can't have any part of your code going wrong. So, make thorough tests that ensure an implementation of a new trick or subbtle change is correct.    
+
+#### Interoperability  
+Have a favorite feature from other libraries like fast.ai or transformers? Those should just work with lightning as well. Grab your favorite model or learning rate scheduler from your favorite library and run it in Lightning.
+
+## Contribution Types    
+Currently looking for help implementing new features or adding bug fixes. 
+
+A lot of good work has already been done in project mechanics (requirements.txt, setup.py, pep8, badges, ci, etc...) we're in a good state there thanks to all the early contributors (even pre-beta release)!   
+
+## Bug Fixes:  
+1. Submit a github issue.   
+2. Fix it.  
+3. Submit a PR! 
+
+## New Features:  
+1. Submit a github issue.   
+2. We'll agree on the feature scope.     
+3. Submit a PR! (with updated docs and tests 🙃).   
+
+## Coding Styleguide
+1. Test the code with flake8.
+2. Use f-strings.

-## What is it?  
+## Demo  
-Keras and fast.ai are too abstract for researchers. Lightning abstracts the full training loop but gives you control in the critical points.   
+[Copy and run this COLAB!](https://colab.research.google.com/drive/1F_RNcHzTfFuQf-LeKvSlud6x7jXYkG31#scrollTo=HOk9c4_35FKg)
 
+## What is it?  
+Lightning is a very lightweight wrapper on PyTorch. This means you don't have to learn a new library. To use Lightning, simply refactor your research code into the [LightningModule](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning#how-do-i-do-use-it) format and Lightning will automate the rest. Lightning guarantees tested, correct, modern best practices for the automated parts.
+
+## How much effort is it to convert?
+You're probably tired of switching frameworks at this point. But it is a very quick process to refactor into the Lightning format. [Check out this tutorial](https://towardsdatascience.com/how-to-refactor-your-pytorch-code-to-get-these-42-benefits-of-pytorch-lighting-6fdd0dc97538)
+
+## Starting a new project?   
+[Use our seed-project aimed at reproducibility!](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning-conference-seed)     
 
 ## Why do I want to use lightning?
-Because you don't want to define a training loop, validation loop, gradient clipping, checkpointing, loading, 
+Every research project starts the same, a model, a training loop, validation loop, etc. As your research advances, you're likely to need distributed training, 16-bit precision, checkpointing, gradient accumulation, etc.   
-gpu training, etc... every time you start a project. Let lightning handle all of that for you! Just define your 
+
-data and what happens in the training, testing and validation loop and lightning will do the rest.
+Lightning sets up all the boilerplate state-of-the-art training for you so you can focus on the research.

+
+## How do I do use it?   
+Think about Lightning as refactoring your research code instead of using a new framework. The research code goes into a [LightningModule](https://williamfalcon.github.io/pytorch-lightning/LightningModule/RequiredTrainerInterface/) which you fit using a Trainer.
+
+The LightningModule defines a *system* such as seq-2-seq, GAN, etc... It can ALSO define a simple classifier such as the example below.     
 
 To use lightning do 2 things:  
-1. [Define a Trainer](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/blob/master/examples/new_project_templates/trainer_cpu_template.py).   
+1. [Define a LightningModule](https://williamfalcon.github.io/pytorch-lightning/LightningModule/RequiredTrainerInterface/)
-2. [Define a LightningModel](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/blob/master/examples/new_project_templates/lightning_module_template.py).

+2. Fit with a [trainer](https://williamfalcon.github.io/pytorch-lightning/Trainer/)    
+    ```python
+    from pytorch_lightning import Trainer
+    
+    model = CoolSystem()
+    
+    # most basic trainer, uses good defaults
+    trainer = Trainer()    
+    trainer.fit(model)   
+    ```
 
-## What does lightning control for me?
+Trainer sets up a tensorboard logger, early stopping and checkpointing by default (you can modify all of them or
-Everything!    
+use something other than tensorboard).   
-Except for these 6 core functions which you define:    
 
-```{.python}
+Here are more advanced examples
+```python   
+# train on cpu using only 10% of the data (for demo purposes)
+trainer = Trainer(max_epochs=1, train_percent_check=0.1)
+
+# train on 4 gpus (lightning chooses GPUs for you)
+# trainer = Trainer(max_epochs=1, gpus=4, distributed_backend='ddp')  
+
+# train on 4 gpus (you choose GPUs)
+# trainer = Trainer(max_epochs=1, gpus=[0, 1, 3, 7], distributed_backend='ddp')   
+
+# train on 32 gpus across 4 nodes (make sure to submit appropriate SLURM job)
+# trainer = Trainer(max_epochs=1, gpus=8, num_gpu_nodes=4, distributed_backend='ddp')
+
+# train (1 epoch only here for demo)
+trainer.fit(model)
+
+# view tensorboard logs 
+logging.info(f'View tensorboard logs by running\ntensorboard --logdir {os.getcwd()}')
+logging.info('and going to http://localhost:6006 on your browser')
+```
+
+When you're all done you can even run the test set separately.   
+```python
+trainer.test()
+```
+
+## What does lightning control for me?

+Everything in gray!

+## FAQ    
+**How do I use Lightning for rapid research?**   
+[Here's a walk-through](https://williamfalcon.github.io/pytorch-lightning/)  
+
+**Why was Lightning created?**     
+Lightning has 3 goals in mind:
+1. Maximal flexibility while abstracting out the common boilerplate across research projects.   
+2. Reproducibility. If all projects use the LightningModule template, it will be much much easier to understand what's going on and where to look! It will also mean every implementation follows a standard format.   
+3. Democratizing PyTorch power user features. Distributed training? 16-bit? know you need them but don't want to take the time to implement? All good... these come built into Lightning.    
+
+**How does Lightning compare with Ignite and fast.ai?**     
+[Here's a thorough comparison](https://medium.com/@_willfalcon/pytorch-lightning-vs-pytorch-ignite-vs-fast-ai-61dc7480ad8a).    
+
+**Is this another library I have to learn?**    
+Nope! We use pure Pytorch everywhere and don't add unecessary abstractions!   
+
+**Are there plans to support Python 2?**          
+Nope.     
+
+**Are there plans to support virtualenv?**    
+Nope. Please use anaconda or miniconda.    
+
+**Which PyTorch versions do you support?**    
+- **PyTorch 1.1.0**       
+    ```bash    
+    # install pytorch 1.1.0 using the official instructions   
+    
+    # install test-tube 0.6.7.6 which supports 1.1.0   
+    pip install test-tube==0.6.7.6   
+    
+    # install latest Lightning version without upgrading deps    
+    pip install -U --no-deps pytorch-lightning
+    ```     
+- **PyTorch 1.2.0, 1.3.0,**
+    Install via pip as normal   
+
+## Custom installation
+
+### Bleeding edge
+
+If you can't wait for the next release, install the most up to date code with:
+* using GIT (locally clone whole repo with full history)
+    ```bash
+    pip install git+https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning.git@master --upgrade
+    ```
+* using instant zip (last state of the repo without git history)
+    ```bash
+    pip install https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/archive/master.zip --upgrade
+    ```
+
+### Any release installation
+
+You can also install any past release from this repository:
 ```bash
-# install lightning
+pip install https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/archive/0.4.4.zip --upgrade
-pip install pytorch-lightning
-
-# clone lightning for the demo
-git clone https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning.git
-cd examples/new_project_templates/
-
-# run demo (on cpu)
-python trainer_gpu_cluster_template.py
 ```
 
-Without changing the model AT ALL, you can run the model on a single gpu, over multiple gpus, or over multiple nodes.
+## Bibtex
-```bash
+If you want to cite the framework feel free to use this (but only if you loved it 😊):
-# run a grid search on two gpus
+```
-python fully_featured_trainer.py --gpus "0;1"
+@misc{Falcon2019,
-
+  author = {Falcon, W.A.},
-# run single model on multiple gpus

-# Lightning Module interface
-[[Github Code](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/blob/master/pytorch_lightning/root_module/root_module.py)]
-
-A lightning module is a strict superclass of nn.Module, it provides a standard interface for the trainer to interact with the model.
-
-The easiest thing to do is copy [this template](../../pytorch_lightning/examples/new_project_templates/lightning_module_template.py) and modify accordingly. 
-
-Otherwise, to Define a Lightning Module, implement the following methods:
-
-**Required**:  
-
-- [training_step](RequiredTrainerInterface.md#training_step)   
-- [validation_step](RequiredTrainerInterface.md#validation_step)
-- [validation_end](RequiredTrainerInterface.md#validation_end)

-
-**Params**    
-

-def validation_step(self, data_batch, batch_nb)
-```
-
-In this step you'd normally do the forward pass and calculate the loss for a batch. You can also do fancier things like multiple forward passes or something specific to your model.
-This is most likely the same as your training_step. But unlike training step, the outputs from here will go to validation_end for collation.
-
-**Params**   
-
-| Param  | description  |
-|---|---|
-|  data_batch | The output of your dataloader. A tensor, tuple or list  |

-def configure_optimizers(self)
-```
-
-Set up as many optimizers as you need. Normally you'd need one. But in the case of GANs or something more esoteric you might have multiple. 
-Lightning will call .backward() and .step() on each one.  If you use 16 bit precision it will also handle that.

---- 
-### get_save_dict 
-
-``` {.python}
-def get_save_dict(self)
-```
-Called by lightning to checkpoint your model. Lightning saves current epoch, current batch nb, etc...
-All you have to return is what specifically about your lightning model you want to checkpoint.
-
-##### Return
-Dictionary - No required keys. Most of the time as described in this example.

-Lightning makes multi-gpu training and 16 bit training trivial.
-
-*Note:*   
-None of the flags below require changing anything about your lightningModel definition. 
-
----
-#### Choosing a backend  
-Lightning supports two backends. DataParallel and DistributedDataParallel. Both can be used for single-node multi-GPU training.
-For multi-node training you must use DistributedDataParallel.   
-
-You can toggle between each mode by setting this flag.
-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT uses DataParallel
-trainer = Trainer(distributed_backend='dp')
-
-# change to distributed data parallel
-trainer = Trainer(distributed_backend='ddp')
-```
-
-If you request multiple nodes, the back-end will auto-switch to ddp.
-We recommend you use DistributedDataparallel even for single-node multi-GPU training. It is MUCH faster than DP but *may*
-have configuration issues depending on your cluster.
-
-For a deeper understanding of what lightning is doing, feel free to read [this guide](https://medium.com/@_willfalcon/9-tips-for-training-lightning-fast-neural-networks-in-pytorch-8e63a502f565).   
-
----
-#### 16-bit mixed precision
-16 bit precision can cut your memory footprint by half. If using volta architecture GPUs it can give a dramatic training speed-up as well.    
-First, install apex (if install fails, look [here](https://github.com/NVIDIA/apex)):
-```bash
-$ git clone https://github.com/NVIDIA/apex
-$ cd apex
-$ pip install -v --no-cache-dir --global-option="--cpp_ext" --global-option="--cuda_ext" ./
-```
-
-then set this use_amp to True.
-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT
-trainer = Trainer(amp_level='O2', use_amp=False)
-```
-
----
-#### Single-gpu
-Make sure you're on a GPU machine. 
-```python
-# set these flags
-os.environ["CUDA_DEVICE_ORDER"] = "PCI_BUS_ID"
-os.environ["CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES"] = "0"
-
-# DEFAULT
-trainer = Trainer(gpus=[0])
-```
-
----
-#### multi-gpu 
-Make sure you're on a GPU machine. You can set as many GPUs as you want.
-In this setting, the model will run on all 8 GPUs at once using DataParallel under the hood.
-```python
-# set these flags
-# lightning sets these flags for you automatically
-# no need to set yourself
-# os.environ["CUDA_DEVICE_ORDER"] = "PCI_BUS_ID"
-# os.environ["CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES"] = "0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7"
-
-
-# to use DataParallel (default)
-trainer = Trainer(gpus=[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7], distributed_backend='dp')
-
-# RECOMMENDED use DistributedDataParallel
-trainer = Trainer(gpus=[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7], distributed_backend='ddp')
-```
-
----
-#### Multi-node
-Multi-node training is easily done by specifying these flags.
-```python
-# train on 12*8 GPUs
-trainer = Trainer(gpus=[0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7], nb_gpu_nodes=12)
-```
-
-In addition, make sure to set up your SLURM job correctly via the [SlurmClusterObject](https://williamfalcon.github.io/test-tube/hpc/SlurmCluster/). In particular, specify the number of tasks per node correctly.
-
-```python
-cluster = SlurmCluster(
-    hyperparam_optimizer=test_tube.HyperOptArgumentParser(),
-    log_path='/some/path/to/save',
-)
-
-# OPTIONAL FLAGS WHICH MAY BE CLUSTER DEPENDENT
-# which interface your nodes use for communication
-cluster.add_command('export NCCL_SOCKET_IFNAME=^docker0,lo')
-
-# see output of the NCCL connection process
-# NCCL is how the nodes talk to each other
-cluster.add_command('export NCCL_DEBUG=INFO')
-
-# setting a master port here is a good idea.
-cluster.add_command(f'export MASTER_PORT={PORT}')
-
-# good to load the latest NCCL version
-cluster.load_modules(['NCCL/2.4.7-1-cuda.10.0'])
-
-# configure cluster
-cluster.per_experiment_nb_nodes = 12 
-cluster.per_experiment_nb_gpus = 8
-
-cluster.add_slurm_cmd(cmd='ntasks-per-node', value=8, comment='1 task per gpu')
-```
-
-Finally, make sure to add a distributed sampler to your dataset. The distributed sampler copies a 
-portion of your dataset onto each GPU. (World_size = gpus_per_node * nb_nodes).   
-
-```python
-# ie: this:
-dataset = myDataset()
-dataloader = Dataloader(dataset)
-
-# becomes:
-dataset = myDataset()
-dist_sampler = torch.utils.data.distributed.DistributedSampler(dataset)
-dataloader = Dataloader(dataset, sampler=dist_sampler)

----
-#### Running grid search on a cluster
-To use lightning to run a hyperparameter search (grid-search or random-search) on a cluster do 4 things:   
-
-(1). Define the parameters for the grid search    
-    
-```{.python}
-from test_tube import HyperOptArgumentParser
-
-# subclass of argparse
-parser = HyperOptArgumentParser(strategy='random_search')
-parser.add_argument('--learning_rate', default=0.002, type=float, help='the learning rate')
-
-# let's enable optimizing over the number of layers in the network
-parser.opt_list('--nb_layers', default=2, type=int, tunable=True, options=[2, 4, 8])
-
-hparams = parser.parse_args()    
-```    
-    
-     
-(2). Define the cluster options in the [SlurmCluster object](https://williamfalcon.github.io/test-tube/hpc/SlurmCluster/) (over 5 nodes and 8 gpus)    
-
-```{.python}
-from test_tube.hpc import SlurmCluster
-
-# hyperparameters is a test-tube hyper params object
-# see https://williamfalcon.github.io/test-tube/hyperparameter_optimization/HyperOptArgumentParser/
-hyperparams = args.parse()
-
-# init cluster
-cluster = SlurmCluster(
-    hyperparam_optimizer=hyperparams,
-    log_path='/path/to/log/results/to',
-    python_cmd='python3'
-)
-
-# let the cluster know where to email for a change in job status (ie: complete, fail, etc...)
-cluster.notify_job_status(email='some@email.com', on_done=True, on_fail=True)
-
-# set the job options. In this instance, we'll run 20 different models
-# each with its own set of hyperparameters giving each one 1 GPU (ie: taking up 20 GPUs)
-cluster.per_experiment_nb_gpus = 8
-cluster.per_experiment_nb_nodes = 5
-
-# we'll request 10GB of memory per node
-cluster.memory_mb_per_node = 10000
-
-# set a walltime of 10 minues
-cluster.job_time = '10:00'
-```
-
-(3). Give trainer the cluster_manager in your main function:    
-
-```{.python}
-from pytorch_lightning import Trainer
-
-def train_fx(trial_hparams, cluster_manager, _):
-    # hparams has a specific set of hyperparams
-    
-    my_model = MyLightningModel()
-    
-    # give the trainer the cluster object
-    trainer = Trainer(cluster=cluster_manager)
-    trainer.fit(my_model)
-
-```
-
-(4). Start the grid search     
-```{.python}
-# run the models on the cluster
-cluster.optimize_parallel_cluster_gpu(
-    train_fx, 
-    nb_trials=20, 
-    job_name='my_grid_search_exp_name', 
-    job_display_name='my_exp')
-```
-
-That's it! The SlurmCluster object will automatically checkpoint the lightning model and resubmit if it runs into the walltime!
-
-
----
-#### Walltime auto-resubmit
-Lightning automatically resubmits jobs when they reach the walltime. You get this behavior for free if you give lightning
-a slurm cluster object.
-
-```{.python}
-def my_main_fx(hparams, slurm_manager, _):
-    trainer = Trainer(cluster=slurm_manager)
-``` 
-
-(See the grid search example above for cluster configuration).
-With this feature lightning will:    
-
-1. automatically checkpoint the model
-2. checkpoint the trainer session
-3. resubmit a continuation job.
-4. load the checkpoint and trainer session in the new model

-If you don't want to check 100% of the test set (for debugging or if it's huge), set this flag
-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT
-trainer = Trainer(test_percent_check=1.0)
-
-# check 10% only
-trainer = Trainer(test_percent_check=0.1)
-```
-
----
-####  Set validation check frequency within 1 training epoch
-For large datasets it's often desirable to check validation multiple times within a training loop
-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT
-trainer = Trainer(val_check_interval=0.95)
-
-# check every .25 of an epoch 
-trainer = Trainer(val_check_interval=0.25)
-```
-
----
-####  Set the number of validation sanity steps
-Lightning runs a few steps of validation in the beginning of training. This avoids crashing in the validation loop sometime deep into a lengthy training loop.
-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT
-trainer = Trainer(nb_sanity_val_steps=5)
-```

-These flags are useful to help debug a model.
-
----
-#### Fast dev run 
-This flag is meant for debugging a full train/val/test loop. It'll activate callbacks, everything but only with 1 training and 1 validation batch.
-Use this to debug a full run of your program quickly
-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT
-trainer = Trainer(fast_dev_run=False)

-Looking at grad norms can help you figure out where training might be going wrong.

-trainer = Trainer(track_grad_norm=-1)
-
-# track the LP norm (P=2 here)
-trainer = Trainer(track_grad_norm=2)

----
-#### Make model overfit on subset of data
-A useful debugging trick is to make your model overfit a tiny fraction of the data.
-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT don't overfit (ie: normal training)
-trainer = Trainer(overfit_pct=0.0)
-
-# overfit on 1% of data 
-trainer = Trainer(overfit_pct=0.01)

-
----
-#### Print the parameter count by layer
-By default lightning prints a list of parameters *and submodules* when it starts training.
-
----
-#### Print which gradients are nan 
-This option prints a list of tensors with nan gradients.
-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT
-trainer = Trainer(print_nan_grads=False)
-```
-
----
-#### Log GPU usage
-Lightning automatically logs gpu usage to the test tube logs. It'll only do it at the metric logging interval, so it doesn't slow down training.

-# Trainer
-[[Github Code](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/blob/master/pytorch_lightning/models/trainer.py)]
-
-The lightning trainer abstracts best practices for running a training, val, test routine. It calls parts of your model when it wants to hand over full control and otherwise makes training assumptions which are now standard practice in AI research.
-
-This is the basic use of the trainer:
-
-``` {.python}
-from pytorch_lightning import Trainer
-
-model = LightningTemplate()
-
-trainer = Trainer()
-trainer.fit(model)
-```
-

-### Template model definition
-In 99% of cases you want to just copy [this template](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/blob/master/examples/new_project_templates/lightning_module_template.py) to start a new lightningModule and change the core of what your model is actually trying to do.
-
-```bash
-# get a copy of the module template
-wget https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/blob/master/examples/new_project_templates/lightning_module_template.py
-```
-
----    
-### Trainer Example 
-
-** \_\_main__ function**    
-
-Normally, we want to let the \_\_main__ function start the training.
-Inside the main we parse training arguments with whatever hyperparameters we want. Your LightningModule will have a 
-chance to add hyperparameters.   
-
-```{.python}
-from test_tube import HyperOptArgumentParser
-
-if __name__ == '__main__':
-
-    # use default args given by lightning
-    root_dir = os.path.split(os.path.dirname(sys.modules['__main__'].__file__))[0]
-    parent_parser = HyperOptArgumentParser(strategy='random_search', add_help=False)
-    add_default_args(parent_parser, root_dir)
-
-    # allow model to overwrite or extend args
-    parser = ExampleModel.add_model_specific_args(parent_parser)
-    hyperparams = parser.parse_args()
-
-    # train model
-    main(hyperparams)
-```
-**Main Function**      
-
-The main function is your entry into the program. This is where you init your model, checkpoint directory, and launch the training.
-The main function should have 3 arguments:   
-- hparams: a configuration of hyperparameters.    
-- slurm_manager: Slurm cluster manager object (can be None)
-- dict: for you to return any values you want (useful in meta-learning, otherwise set to _)    
-
-```{}
-def main(hparams, cluster, results_dict):
-    """
-    Main training routine specific for this project
-    :param hparams:
-    :return:
-    """
-    # init experiment
-    log_dir = os.path.dirname(os.path.realpath(__file__))
-    exp = Experiment(
-        name='test_tube_exp',
-        debug=True,
-        save_dir=log_dir,
-        version=0,
-        autosave=False,
-        description='test demo'
-    )
-    
-    # set the hparams for the experiment
-    exp.argparse(hparams)
-    exp.save()
-
-    # build model
-    model = MyLightningModule(hparams)
-
-    # callbacks
-    early_stop = EarlyStopping(
-        monitor=hparams.early_stop_metric,
-        patience=hparams.early_stop_patience,
-        verbose=True,
-        mode=hparams.early_stop_mode
-    )
-
-    model_save_path = '{}/{}/{}'.format(hparams.model_save_path, exp.name, exp.version)
-    checkpoint = ModelCheckpoint(
-        filepath=model_save_path,
-        save_function=None,
-        save_best_only=True,
-        verbose=True,
-        monitor=hparams.model_save_monitor_value,
-        mode=hparams.model_save_monitor_mode
-    )
-
-    # configure trainer
-    trainer = Trainer(
-        experiment=exp,
-        cluster=cluster,
-        checkpoint_callback=checkpoint,
-        early_stop_callback=early_stop,
-    )
-
-    # train model
-    trainer.fit(model)
-```
-
-
-
-
-The __main__ function will start training on your **main** function. If you use the HyperParameterOptimizer
-in hyper parameter optimization mode, this main function will get one set of hyperparameters. If you use it as a simple
-argument parser you get the default arguments in the argument parser.
-
-So, calling main(hyperparams) runs the model with the default argparse arguments.       
-```{.python}
-main(hyperparams)
-```

+Quick Start
+===========
+To start a new project define two files, a LightningModule and a Trainer file.    
+To illustrate Lightning power and simplicity, here's an example of a typical research flow.    
+
+Case 1: BERT
+------------
+
+Let's say you're working on something like BERT but want to try different ways of training or even different networks.  
+You would define a single LightningModule and use flags to switch between your different ideas.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    class BERT(pl.LightningModule):
+        def __init__(self, model_name, task):
+            self.task = task
+
+            if model_name == 'transformer':
+                self.net = Transformer()
+            elif model_name == 'my_cool_version':
+                self.net = MyCoolVersion()
+
+        def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
+            if self.task == 'standard_bert':
+                # do standard bert training with self.net...
+                # return loss
+
+            if self.task == 'my_cool_task':
+                # do my own version with self.net
+                # return loss
+
+
+Case 2: COOLER NOT BERT
+-----------------------
+
+But if you wanted to try something **completely** different, you'd define a new module for that.
+
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    class CoolerNotBERT(pl.LightningModule):
+        def __init__(self):
+            self.net = ...
+
+        def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
+            # do some other cool task
+            # return loss
+
+
+Rapid research flow
+-------------------
+
+Then you could do rapid research by switching between these two and using the same trainer.
+
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    if use_bert:
+        model = BERT()
+    else:
+        model = CoolerNotBERT()
+
+    trainer = Trainer(gpus=4, use_amp=True)
+    trainer.fit(model)
+
+
+**Notice a few things about this flow:**
+
+1. You're writing pure PyTorch... no unnecessary abstractions or new libraries to learn.   
+2. You get free GPU and 16-bit support without writing any of that code in your model.   
+3. You also get all of the capabilities below (without coding or testing yourself).

+Template model definition
+-------------------------
+
+In 99% of cases you want to just copy `one of the examples
+ <https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/tree/master/pl_examples>`_
+ to start a new lightningModule and change the core of what your model is actually trying to do.
+
+.. code-block:: bash
+
+    # get a copy of the module template
+    wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/master/pl_examples/new_project_templates/lightning_module_template.py  # noqa: E501
+
+
+Trainer Example
+---------------
+
+**`__main__` function**
+
+Normally, we want to let the `__main__` function start the training.
+ Inside the main we parse training arguments with whatever hyperparameters we want.
+ Your LightningModule will have a chance to add hyperparameters.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from test_tube import HyperOptArgumentParser
+
+    if __name__ == '__main__':
+
+        # use default args given by lightning
+        root_dir = os.path.split(os.path.dirname(sys.modules['__main__'].__file__))[0]
+        parent_parser = HyperOptArgumentParser(strategy='random_search', add_help=False)
+        add_default_args(parent_parser, root_dir)
+
+        # allow model to overwrite or extend args
+        parser = ExampleModel.add_model_specific_args(parent_parser)
+        hyperparams = parser.parse_args()
+
+        # train model
+        main(hyperparams)
+
+**Main Function**
+
+The main function is your entry into the program. This is where you init your model, checkpoint directory,
+ and launch the training. The main function should have 3 arguments:
+- hparams: a configuration of hyperparameters.
+- slurm_manager: Slurm cluster manager object (can be None)
+- dict: for you to return any values you want (useful in meta-learning, otherwise set to)
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    def main(hparams, cluster, results_dict):
+        # build model
+        model = MyLightningModule(hparams)
+
+        # configure trainer
+        trainer = Trainer()
+
+        # train model
+        trainer.fit(model)
+
+
+The `__main__` function will start training on your **main** function.
+ If you use the HyperParameterOptimizer in hyper parameter optimization mode,
+ this main function will get one set of hyperparameters. If you use it as a simple
+ argument parser you get the default arguments in the argument parser.
+
+So, calling main(hyperparams) runs the model with the default argparse arguments.::
+
+    main(hyperparams)
+
+
+CPU hyperparameter search
+-------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    # run a grid search over 20 hyperparameter combinations.
+    hyperparams.optimize_parallel_cpu(
+        main_local,
+        nb_trials=20,
+        nb_workers=1
+    )
+
+
+Hyperparameter search on a single or multiple GPUs
+--------------------------------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    # run a grid search over 20 hyperparameter combinations.
+    hyperparams.optimize_parallel_gpu(
+        main_local,
+        nb_trials=20,
+        nb_workers=1,
+        gpus=[0,1,2,3]
+    )
+
+
+Hyperparameter search on a SLURM HPC cluster
+--------------------------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    def optimize_on_cluster(hyperparams):
+        # enable cluster training
+        cluster = SlurmCluster(
+            hyperparam_optimizer=hyperparams,

+# Multi-node example   
+
+This demo launches a job using 2 GPUs on 2 different nodes (4 GPUs total).
+To run this demo do the following:
+
+1. Log into the jumphost node of your SLURM-managed cluster.  
+2. Create a conda environment with Lightning and a GPU PyTorch version.   
+3. Choose a script to submit    
+
+#### DDP  
+Submit this job to run with distributedDataParallel (2 nodes, 2 gpus each)
+```bash
+sbatch ddp_job_submit.sh YourEnv
+```
+
+#### DDP2  
+Submit this job to run with a different implementation of distributedDataParallel.
+In this version, each node acts like DataParallel but syncs across nodes like DDP.
+```bash
+sbatch ddp2_job_submit.sh YourEnv
+```

+Lightning Module interface
+==========================
+
+A lightning module is a strict superclass of nn.Module, it provides a standard interface
+ for the trainer to interact with the model.
+
+The easiest thing to do is copy the minimal example below and modify accordingly.
+
+Otherwise, to Define a Lightning Module, implement the following methods:
+
+
+Minimal example
+---------------
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    import os
+    import torch
+    from torch.nn import functional as F
+    from torch.utils.data import DataLoader
+    from torchvision.datasets import MNIST
+    import torchvision.transforms as transforms
+
+    import pytorch_lightning as pl
+
+    class CoolModel(pl.LightningModule):
+
+        def __init__(self):
+            super(CoolModel, self).__init__()
+            # not the best model...
+            self.l1 = torch.nn.Linear(28 * 28, 10)
+
+        def forward(self, x):
+            return torch.relu(self.l1(x.view(x.size(0), -1)))
+
+        def training_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
+            # REQUIRED
+            x, y = batch
+            y_hat = self.forward(x)
+            return {'loss': F.cross_entropy(y_hat, y)}
+
+        def validation_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
+            # OPTIONAL
+            x, y = batch
+            y_hat = self.forward(x)
+            return {'val_loss': F.cross_entropy(y_hat, y)}
+
+        def validation_end(self, outputs):
+            # OPTIONAL
+            avg_loss = torch.stack([x['val_loss'] for x in outputs]).mean()
+            return {'avg_val_loss': avg_loss}
+
+        def test_step(self, batch, batch_idx):
+            # OPTIONAL
+            x, y = batch
+            y_hat = self.forward(x)
+            return {'test_loss': F.cross_entropy(y_hat, y)}
+
+        def test_end(self, outputs):
+            # OPTIONAL
+            avg_loss = torch.stack([x['test_loss'] for x in outputs]).mean()
+            return {'avg_test_loss': avg_loss}
+
+        def configure_optimizers(self):
+            # REQUIRED
+            return torch.optim.Adam(self.parameters(), lr=0.02)
+
+        @pl.data_loader
+        def train_dataloader(self):
+            return DataLoader(MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=True, download=True,
+                              transform=transforms.ToTensor()), batch_size=32)
+
+        @pl.data_loader
+        def val_dataloader(self):
+            # OPTIONAL
+            # can also return a list of val dataloaders
+            return DataLoader(MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=True, download=True,
+                              transform=transforms.ToTensor()), batch_size=32)
+
+        @pl.data_loader
+        def test_dataloader(self):
+            # OPTIONAL
+            # can also return a list of test dataloaders
+            return DataLoader(MNIST(os.getcwd(), train=False, download=True,
+                              transform=transforms.ToTensor()), batch_size=32)
+
+
+How do these methods fit into the broader training?
+---------------------------------------------------
+
+The LightningModule interface is on the right. Each method corresponds
+ to a part of a research project. Lightning automates everything not in blue.

+
+   Overview.
+
+
+Optional Methods
+----------------
+
+**add_model_specific_args**
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    @staticmethod
+    def add_model_specific_args(parent_parser, root_dir)
+
+Lightning has a list of default argparse commands.
+ This method is your chance to add or modify commands specific to your model.
+ The `hyperparameter argument parser
+  <https://williamfalcon.github.io/test-tube/hyperparameter_optimization/HyperOptArgumentParser>`_
+ is available anywhere in your model by calling self.hparams.
+
+**Return**
+An argument parser

+"""
+Lighting offers options for logging information about model, gpu usage, etc,
+ via several different logging frameworks. It also offers printing options for training monitoring.
+
+**default_save_path**
+
+Lightning sets a default TestTubeLogger and CheckpointCallback for you which log to
+`os.getcwd()` by default. To modify the logging path you can set::
+
+    Trainer(default_save_path='/your/path/to/save/checkpoints')
+
+
+If you need more custom behavior (different paths for both, different metrics, etc...)
+ from the logger and the checkpointCallback, pass in your own instances as explained below.
+
+Setting up logging
+------------------
+
+The trainer inits a default logger for you (TestTubeLogger). All logs will
+go to the current working directory under a folder named `os.getcwd()/lightning_logs`.
+
+If you want to modify the default logging behavior even more, pass in a logger
+ (which should inherit from `LightningBaseLogger`).
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    my_logger = MyLightningLogger(...)
+    trainer = Trainer(logger=my_logger)
+
+
+The path in this logger will overwrite `default_save_path`.
+
+Lightning supports several common experiment tracking frameworks out of the box
+
+Custom logger
+-------------
+
+You can implement your own logger by writing a class that inherits from
+`LightningLoggerBase`. Use the `rank_zero_only` decorator to make sure that
+only the first process in DDP training logs data.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from pytorch_lightning.logging import LightningLoggerBase, rank_zero_only
+
+    class MyLogger(LightningLoggerBase):
+
+        @rank_zero_only
+        def log_hyperparams(self, params):
+            # params is an argparse.Namespace
+            # your code to record hyperparameters goes here
+            pass
+
+        @rank_zero_only
+        def log_metrics(self, metrics, step):
+            # metrics is a dictionary of metric names and values
+            # your code to record metrics goes here
+            pass
+
+        def save(self):
+            # Optional. Any code necessary to save logger data goes here
+            pass
+
+        @rank_zero_only
+        def finalize(self, status):
+            # Optional. Any code that needs to be run after training
+            # finishes goes here
+
+
+If you write a logger than may be useful to others, please send
+a pull request to add it to Lighting!
+
+Using loggers
+-------------
+
+You can call the logger anywhere from your LightningModule by doing:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    def train_step(...):
+        # example
+        self.logger.experiment.whatever_method_summary_writer_supports(...)
+
+    def any_lightning_module_function_or_hook(...):
+        self.logger.experiment.add_histogram(...)
+
+Display metrics in progress bar
+-------------------------------
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    # DEFAULT
+    trainer = Trainer(show_progress_bar=True)
+
+Log metric row every k batches
+------------------------------
+
+Every k batches lightning will make an entry in the metrics log
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    # DEFAULT (ie: save a .csv log file every 10 batches)
+    trainer = Trainer(row_log_interval=10)
+
+Log GPU memory
+--------------
+
+Logs GPU memory when metrics are logged.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    # DEFAULT
+    trainer = Trainer(log_gpu_memory=None)
+
+    # log only the min/max utilization
+    trainer = Trainer(log_gpu_memory='min_max')
+
+    # log all the GPU memory (if on DDP, logs only that node)
+    trainer = Trainer(log_gpu_memory='all')
+
+Process position
+----------------
+
+When running multiple models on the same machine we want to decide which progress bar to use.
+ Lightning will stack progress bars according to this value.
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    # DEFAULT
+    trainer = Trainer(process_position=0)
+
+    # if this is the second model on the node, show the second progress bar below
+    trainer = Trainer(process_position=1)
+
+
+Save a snapshot of all hyperparameters
+--------------------------------------
+
+Automatically log hyperparameters stored in the `hparams` attribute as an `argparse.Namespace`
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    class MyModel(pl.Lightning):
+        def __init__(self, hparams):
+            self.hparams = hparams
+
+        ...
+
+    args = parser.parse_args()
+    model = MyModel(args)
+
+    logger = TestTubeLogger(...)
+    t = Trainer(logger=logger)
+    trainer.fit(model)
+
+Write logs file to csv every k batches
+--------------------------------------
+
+Every k batches, lightning will write the new logs to disk
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    # DEFAULT (ie: save a .csv log file every 100 batches)
+    trainer = Trainer(log_save_interval=100)
