This will import the ipywidgets version of tqdm if available. This works nicely in notebooks by not filling up the log.

In the terminal it will use the same old tqdm.

We might also want to consider passing in the tqdm we want as an argument since there may be some edge cases where ipywidgets is available but the interface doesn't support it (e.g. vscode?) or isn't working. In which case people will get a warning message, but may want to configure it themselves.

+# 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/PyTorchLightning/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.

 # 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.

 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.    
 
-## Contribution types

 ## 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.
+Lightning is a very lightweight wrapper on PyTorch that decouples the science code from the engineering code. It's more of a style-guide than a framework. By refactoring your code, we can automate most of the non-research code.

+To use Lightning, simply refactor your research code into the [LightningModule](https://github.com/PytorchLightning/pytorch-lightning#how-do-i-do-use-it) format (the science) and Lightning will automate the rest (the engineering). Lightning guarantees tested, correct, modern best practices for the automated parts.
+
+- If you are a researcher, Lightning is infinitely flexible, you can modify everything down to the way .backward is called or distributed is set up. 
+- If you are a scientist or production team, lightning is very simple to use with best practice defaults.
+
+## What does lightning control for me?   
+
+Everything in Blue!   
+This is how lightning separates the science (red) from the engineering (blue).
+
+![Overview](docs/source/_static/images/pl.gif)
+
+## 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 (ie: hours). [Check out this tutorial](https://towardsdatascience.com/how-to-refactor-your-pytorch-code-to-get-these-42-benefits-of-pytorch-lighting-6fdd0dc97538)

-## Required Methods    
-
-### training_step
-
-``` {.python}
-def training_step(self, 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.
-
-**Params**    
-
-| Param  | description  |
-|---|---|
-|  batch | The output of your dataloader. A tensor, tuple or list  |
-|  batch_nb | Integer displaying which batch this is  |
-
-**Return**   
-
-Dictionary or OrderedDict   
-
-| key  | value  | is required |
-|---|---|---|
-|  loss | tensor scalar  | Y |
-|  progress_bar | Dict for progress bar display. Must have only tensors  | N |
-|  log | Dict of metrics to add to logger. Must have only tensors (no images, etc)  | N |
-
-
-**Example**
-
-``` {.python}
-def training_step(self, batch, batch_nb):
-    x, y, z = batch
-    
-    # implement your own
-    out = self.forward(x)
-    loss = self.loss(out, x)
-    
-    output = {
-        'loss': loss, # required
-        'progress_bar': {'training_loss': loss}, # optional (MUST ALL BE TENSORS)
-        'log': {'training_loss': loss} # optional (MUST ALL BE TENSORS)
-    }
-    
-    # return a dict
-    return output
-```    
-
-If you define multiple optimizers, this step will also be called with an additional ```optimizer_idx``` param.    
-``` {.python}
-# Multiple optimizers (ie: GANs)     
-def training_step(self, batch, batch_nb, optimizer_idx):
-    if optimizer_idx == 0:
-        # do training_step with encoder
-    if optimizer_idx == 1:
-        # do training_step with decoder    
-```    
-
-You can also return a -1 instead of a dict to stop the current loop. This is useful if you want to
-break out of the current training epoch early.
-
---- 
-### train_dataloader 
-
-``` {.python}
-@pl.data_loader
-def train_dataloader(self)
-```
-Called by lightning during training loop. Make sure to use the @pl.data_loader decorator, this ensures not calling this function until the data are needed.   
-If you want to change the data during every epoch DON'T use the data_loader decorator.   
-
-##### Return
-PyTorch DataLoader
-
-**Example**
-
-``` {.python}
-@pl.data_loader
-def train_dataloader(self):
-    transform = transforms.Compose([transforms.ToTensor(), transforms.Normalize((0.5,), (1.0,))])
-    dataset = MNIST(root='/path/to/mnist/', train=True, transform=transform, download=True)
-    loader = torch.utils.data.DataLoader(
-        dataset=dataset,
-        batch_size=self.hparams.batch_size,
-        shuffle=True
-    )
-    return loader
-```
-
---- 
-### configure_optimizers 
-
-``` {.python}
-def configure_optimizers(self)
-```
-
-Set up as many optimizers and (optionally) learning rate schedulers 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 in every epoch.  If you use 16 bit precision it will also handle that.
-
-**Note:** If you use multiple optimizers, training_step will have an additional ```optimizer_idx``` parameter.    
-**Note 2:** If you use LBFGS lightning handles the closure function automatically for you.
-
-##### Return    
-Return any of these 3 options:   
-Single optimizer   
-List or Tuple - List of optimizers    
-Two lists - The first list has multiple optimizers, the second a list of learning-rate schedulers
-
-**Example**
-
-``` {.python}
-# most cases
-def configure_optimizers(self):
-    opt = Adam(self.parameters(), lr=0.01)
-    return opt
-
-# multiple optimizer case (eg: GAN)
-def configure_optimizers(self):
-    generator_opt = Adam(self.model_gen.parameters(), lr=0.01)
-    disriminator_opt = Adam(self.model_disc.parameters(), lr=0.02)
-    return generator_opt, disriminator_opt
-    
-# example with learning_rate schedulers  
-def configure_optimizers(self):
-    generator_opt = Adam(self.model_gen.parameters(), lr=0.01)
-    disriminator_opt = Adam(self.model_disc.parameters(), lr=0.02)
-    discriminator_sched = CosineAnnealing(discriminator_opt, T_max=10)
-    return [generator_opt, disriminator_opt], [discriminator_sched]
-```  
-
-If you need to control how often those optimizers step or override the default .step() schedule, override 
-the [optimizer_step](https://williamfalcon.github.io/pytorch-lightning/Trainer/hooks/#optimizer_step) hook.   
-
-## Optional Methods    
-
-### validation_step
-
-``` {.python}
-# if you have one val dataloader:
-def validation_step(self, batch, batch_nb)   
-
-# if you have multiple val dataloaders:  
-def validation_step(self, batch, batch_nb, dataloader_idxdx)
-```
-**OPTIONAL**    
-If you don't need to validate you don't need to implement this method. In this step you'd normally generate examples or calculate anything of interest such as accuracy. 
-
-When the validation_step is called, the model has been put in eval mode and PyTorch gradients have been disabled. At the end of validation, model goes back to training mode and gradients are enabled.
-
-The dict you return here will be available in the `validation_end` method. 
-
-**Params**   
-
-| Param  | description  |
-|---|---|
-|  batch | The output of your dataloader. A tensor, tuple or list  |
-|  batch_nb | Integer displaying which batch this is  |
-|  dataloader_idx | Integer displaying which dataloader this is (only if multiple val datasets used)  |
-
-**Return**   
-
-| Return  | description  | optional |
-|---|---|---|   
-|  dict | Dict or OrderedDict - passed to the validation_end step | N |
-
-**Example**
-
-``` {.python}
-# CASE 1: A single validation dataset
-def validation_step(self, batch, batch_nb):
-    x, y = batch
-    
-    # implement your own
-    out = self.forward(x)
-    loss = self.loss(out, y)
-    
-    # log 6 example images
-    # or generated text... or whatever
-    sample_imgs = x[:6]
-    grid = torchvision.utils.make_grid(sample_imgs)
-    self.logger.experiment.add_image('example_images', grid, 0) 
-    
-    # calculate acc
-    labels_hat = torch.argmax(out, dim=1)
-    val_acc = torch.sum(y == labels_hat).item() / (len(y) * 1.0)
-    
-    # all optional...
-    # return whatever you need for the collation function validation_end
-    output = OrderedDict({
-        'val_loss': loss_val,
-        'val_acc': torch.tensor(val_acc), # everything must be a tensor
-    })
-    
-    # return an optional dict
-    return output
-```   
-
-If you pass in multiple validation datasets, validation_step will have an additional argument.
-
-```python
-# CASE 2: multiple validation datasets
-def validation_step(self, batch, batch_nb, dataset_idx):
-    # dataset_idx tells you which dataset this is.   
-```   
-
-The ```dataset_idx``` corresponds to the order of datasets returned in ```val_dataloader```.    
-
---- 
-### validation_end
-
-``` {.python}
-def validation_end(self, outputs)
-```   
-If you didn't define a validation_step, this won't be called.       
-
-Called at the end of the validation loop with the outputs of validation_step.
-
-The outputs here are strictly for the progress bar. If you don't need to display anything, don't return anything.    
-
-**Params**    
-
-| Param  | description  |
-|---|---|
-|  outputs | List of outputs you defined in validation_step, or if there are multiple dataloaders, a list containing a list of outputs for each dataloader |
-
-**Return**   
-
-Dictionary or OrderedDict   
-
-| key  | value  | is required |
-|---|---|---|
-|  progress_bar | Dict for progress bar display. Must have only tensors  | N |
-|  log | Dict of metrics to add to logger. Must have only tensors (no images, etc)  | N |
-

-
-With a single dataloader
-
-``` {.python}

-restore the trainer state as well. This will continue from the epoch and global step you last left off.  
-However, the dataloaders will start from the first batch again (if you shuffled it shouldn't matter).

-Lightning will restore the session if you pass an experiment with the same version and there's a saved checkpoint.   
-``` {.python}
-from test_tube import Experiment

-
-# this fit call loads model weights and trainer state
-# the trainer continues seamlessly from where you left off
-# without having to do anything else.
-trainer.fit(model)
-```
-
-The trainer restores:  
-
-- global_step    
-- current_epoch    
-- All optimizers    
-- All lr_schedulers    
-- Model weights
-
-You can even change the logic of your model as long as the weights and "architecture" of 
-the system isn't different. If you add a layer, for instance, it might not work.

-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.   
-
-##### DataParallel (dp)   
-Splits a batch across multiple GPUs on the same node. Cannot be used for multi-node training.   
-
-##### DistributedDataParallel (ddp)   
-Trains a copy of the model on each GPU and only syncs gradients. If used with DistributedSampler, each GPU trains
-on a subset of the full dataset.  
-
-##### DistributedDataParallel-2 (ddp2)   
-Works like DDP, except each node trains a single copy of the model using ALL GPUs on that node. 
-Very useful when dealing with negative samples, etc...
-
-You can toggle between each mode by setting this flag.
-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT (when using single GPU or no GPUs)
-trainer = Trainer(distributed_backend=None)
-
-# Change to DataParallel (gpus > 1)
-trainer = Trainer(distributed_backend='dp')
-
-# change to distributed data parallel (gpus > 1)
-trainer = Trainer(distributed_backend='ddp')
-
-# change to distributed data parallel (gpus > 1)
-trainer = Trainer(distributed_backend='ddp2')
-```
-
-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).   
-
----
-#### Distributed and 16-bit precision.    
-Due to an issue with apex and DistributedDataParallel (PyTorch and NVIDIA issue), Lightning does
-not allow 16-bit and DP training. We tried to get this to work, but it's an issue on their end.   
-
-Below are the possible configurations we support.    
-
-| 1 GPU  | 1+ GPUs  | DP  | DDP  | 16-bit  | command |
-|---|---|---|---|---|---|
-| Y  |   |   |   |  | ```Trainer(gpus=1)``` |
-| Y  |   |   |   | Y | ```Trainer(gpus=1, use_amp=True)``` |
-|   | Y | Y |   |   | ```Trainer(gpus=k, distributed_backend='dp')``` |
-|   | Y |  | Y  |  | ```Trainer(gpus=k, distributed_backend='ddp')``` |
-|   | Y |  | Y  | Y | ```Trainer(gpus=k, distributed_backend='ddp', use_amp=True)``` |
-
-You also have the option of specifying which GPUs to use by passing a list:   
-
-```python
-# DEFAULT (int)
-Trainer(gpus=k)  
-
-# You specify which GPUs (don't use if running on cluster)  
-Trainer(gpus=[0, 1])  
-
-# can also be a string
-Trainer(gpus='0, 1')
-```
-
----
-#### CUDA flags   
-CUDA flags make certain GPUs visible to your script. 
-Lightning sets these for you automatically, there's NO NEED to do this yourself.
-```python
-# lightning will set according to what you give the trainer
-# os.environ["CUDA_DEVICE_ORDER"] = "PCI_BUS_ID"
-# os.environ["CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES"] = "0"
-```
-
-However, when using a cluster, Lightning will NOT set these flags (and you should not either). 
-SLURM will set these for you.   
-
----
-#### 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
-
-# ------------------------
-# OPTIONAL: on your cluster you might need to load cuda 10 or 9
-# depending on how you installed PyTorch
-
-# see available modules
-module avail
-
-# load correct cuda before install
-module load cuda-10.0
-# ------------------------
-
-# make sure you've loaded a cuda version > 4.0 and < 7.0
-module load gcc-6.1.0
-
-$ 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
-# DEFAULT
-trainer = Trainer(gpus=1)
-```
-
----
-#### 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
-# to use DataParallel
-trainer = Trainer(gpus=8, distributed_backend='dp')
-
-# RECOMMENDED use DistributedDataParallel
-trainer = Trainer(gpus=8, distributed_backend='ddp')
-```
-
----
-#### Multi-node
-Multi-node training is easily done by specifying these flags. 
-```python
-# train on 12*8 GPUs
-trainer = Trainer(gpus=8, nb_gpu_nodes=12, distributed_backend='ddp')
-```
-
-You must configure your job submission script correctly for the trainer to work. Here is an example
-script for the above trainer configuration.   
-
-```sh
-#!/bin/bash -l
-
-# SLURM SUBMIT SCRIPT
-#SBATCH --nodes=12
-#SBATCH --gres=gpu:8
-#SBATCH --ntasks-per-node=8
-#SBATCH --mem=0
-#SBATCH --time=0-02:00:00
-
-# activate conda env
-conda activate my_env
-
-# -------------------------
-# OPTIONAL
-# -------------------------
-# debugging flags (optional)
-# export NCCL_DEBUG=INFO
-# export PYTHONFAULTHANDLER=1
-
-# PyTorch comes with prebuilt NCCL support... but if you have issues with it
-# you might need to load the latest version from your  modules
-# module load NCCL/2.4.7-1-cuda.10.0
-
-# on your cluster you might need these:
-# set the network interface
-# export NCCL_SOCKET_IFNAME=^docker0,lo
-# -------------------------
-
-# random port between 12k and 20k
-export MASTER_PORT=$((12000 + RANDOM % 20000))
-
-# run script from above
-python my_main_file.py
-```
-
-**NOTE:** When running in DDP mode, any errors in your code will show up as an NCCL issue.
-Set the ```NCCL_DEBUG=INFO``` flag to see the ACTUAL error.
-
-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:

-#### Auto-slurm-job-submission
-Instead of manually building SLURM scripts, you can use the [SlurmCluster object](https://williamfalcon.github.io/test-tube/hpc/SlurmCluster/) to
-do this for you. The SlurmCluster can also run a grid search if you pass in a [HyperOptArgumentParser](https://williamfalcon.github.io/test-tube/hyperparameter_optimization/HyperOptArgumentParser/).
-
-Here is an example where you run a grid search of 9 combinations of hyperparams.
-[The full examples are here](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/tree/master/examples/new_project_templates/multi_node_examples).
-```python
-# grid search 3 values of learning rate and 3 values of number of layers for your net
-# this generates 9 experiments (lr=1e-3, layers=16), (lr=1e-3, layers=32), (lr=1e-3, layers=64), ... (lr=1e-1, layers=64)
-parser = HyperOptArgumentParser(strategy='grid_search', add_help=False)

-parser.opt_list('--layers', default=1, type=float, options=[16, 32, 64], tunable=True)
-hyperparams = parser.parse_args()
-
-# Slurm cluster submits 9 jobs, each with a set of hyperparams
-cluster = SlurmCluster(
-    hyperparam_optimizer=hyperparams,
-    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('export MASTER_PORT=%r' % PORT)
-
-# ************** DON'T FORGET THIS ***************
-# MUST 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

docs/Trainer/Logging.md

@@ -1,177 +0,0 @@
-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:
-```python
-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`).   
-
-```{.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
-
----
-#### Test tube
-
-Log using [test tube](https://williamfalcon.github.io/test-tube/).
-
-```{.python}
-from pytorch_lightning.logging import TestTubeLogger
-tt_logger = TestTubeLogger(
-    save_dir=".",
-    name="default",
-    debug=False,
-    create_git_tag=False
-)
-trainer = Trainer(logger=tt_logger)
-```
-
----
-#### MLFlow
-
-Log using [mlflow](https://mlflow.org)
-
-```{.python}
-from pytorch_lightning.logging import MLFlowLogger
-mlf_logger = MLFlowLogger(
-    experiment_name="default",
-    tracking_uri="file:/."
-)
-trainer = Trainer(logger=mlf_logger)
-```
-
----
-#### 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.
-
-```{.python}
-from pytorch_lightning.logging import LightningLoggerBase, rank_zero_only
-
-class MyLogger(LightningLoggerBase):
-
-    @rank_zero_only
-    def log_hyperparams(self, params):

-        # your code to record hyperparameters goes here
-        pass
-    
-    @rank_zero_only
-    def log_metrics(self, metrics, step_num):
-        # 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:
-```python
-self.logger
-
-# add an image if using TestTubeLogger
-self.logger.experiment.add_image(...)
-```
-
-
-#### Display metrics in progress bar 
-``` {.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
-``` {.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.   
-``` {.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. 
-``` {.python}

-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` 
-``` {.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)
-```

-``` {.python}
-# DEFAULT (ie: save a .csv log file every 100 batches)
-trainer = Trainer(log_save_interval=100)
-```

----
-#### 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()    
-```    
-    
-**NOTE** You must set ```Tunable=True``` for that argument to be considered in the permutation set. Otherwise
-test-tube will use the default value. This flag is useful when you don't want to search over an argument and
-want to use the default instead.   
-     
-(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). Make a main function with your model and trainer. Each job will call this function with a particular
-hparams configuration.    
-```{.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()
-    trainer.fit(my_model)
-
-```
-
-(3). Start the grid/random 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')
-```
-
-**NOTE** nb_trials specifies how many of the possible permutations to use. If using ```grid_search``` it will use
-the depth first ordering. If using ```random_search``` it will use the first k shuffled options. FYI, random search
-has been shown to be just as good as any Bayesian optimization method when using a reasonable number of samples (60),
-[see this paper for more information](http://www.jmlr.org/papers/volume13/bergstra12a/bergstra12a.pdf).
-
----
-#### Walltime auto-resubmit
-Lightning automatically resubmits jobs when they reach the walltime. Make sure to set the SIGUSR1 signal in 
-your SLURM script.   
-
-```bash
-# 90 seconds before training ends
-#SBATCH --signal=SIGUSR1@90
-``` 
-
-When lightning receives the SIGUSR1 signal it will:
-1. save a checkpoint with 'hpc_ckpt' in the name.
-2. resubmit the job using the SLURM_JOB_ID  
-
-When the script starts again, Lightning will:
-1. search for a 'hpc_ckpt' checkpoint. 
-2. restore the model, optimizers, schedulers, epoch, etc...

-# 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)
-```
-
-But of course the fun is in all the advanced things it can do:

-### Template model definition
-In 99% of cases you want to just copy [one of the examples](https://github.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/tree/master/examples) 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://raw.githubusercontent.com/williamFalcon/pytorch-lightning/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 _)    
-
-```python
-def main(hparams, cluster, results_dict):
-    """
-    Main training routine specific for this project
-    :param hparams:
-    :return:
-    """
-    # 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.       
-```{.python}
-main(hyperparams)
-```
-
----
-#### CPU hyperparameter search      
-
-```{.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       
-```{.python}
-# run a grid search over 20 hyperparameter combinations.

-    main_local,
-    nb_trials=20,

-#### Hyperparameter search on a SLURM HPC cluster

-###### New project 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.   
-```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_nb):
-        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.    
-```python
-
-class CoolerNotBERT(pl.LightningModule):
-    def __init__(self):
-        self.net = ...
-        
-    def training_step(self, batch, batch_nb):
-        # 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.   
-```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).

+# 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/PyTorchLightning/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

+# 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.

+Quick Start
+===========
+| To start a new project define two files, a LightningModule and a Trainer file.
+| To illustrate the power of Lightning and its 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 early stopping, multi-gpu training, 16-bit and MUCH more without coding anything!

+Template model definition
+-------------------------
+
+In 99% of cases you want to just copy `one of the examples
+ <https://github.com/PyTorchLightning/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/PyTorchLightning/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,
+            log_path=hyperparams.tt_save_path,
+            test_tube_exp_name=hyperparams.tt_name
+        )
+
+        # email for cluster coms
+        cluster.notify_job_status(email='add_email_here', on_done=True, on_fail=True)
+
+        # configure cluster
+        cluster.per_experiment_nb_gpus = hyperparams.per_experiment_nb_gpus
+        cluster.job_time = '48:00:00'
+        cluster.gpu_type = '1080ti'
+        cluster.memory_mb_per_node = 48000
+
+        # any modules for code to run in env
+        cluster.add_command('source activate pytorch_lightning')
+
+        # name of exp
+        job_display_name = hyperparams.tt_name.split('_')[0]
+        job_display_name = job_display_name[0:3]

+                Read how to get your API key
+                https://docs.neptune.ml/python-api/tutorials/get-started.html#copy-api-token.
+            project_name (str): Required in online mode. Qualified name of a project in a form of
+               "namespace/project_name" for example "tom/minst-classification".
+               If None, the value of NEPTUNE_PROJECT environment variable will be taken.
+               You need to create the project in https://neptune.ml first.
+            offline_mode (bool): Optional default False. If offline_mode=True no logs will be send to neptune.
+               Usually used for debug purposes.
+            experiment_name (str|None): Optional. Editable name of the experiment.
+               Name is displayed in the experiment’s Details (Metadata section) and in experiments view as a column.
+            upload_source_files (list|None): Optional. List of source files to be uploaded.
+               Must be list of str or single str. Uploaded sources are displayed in the experiment’s Source code tab.
+               If None is passed, Python file from which experiment was created will be uploaded.
+               Pass empty list ([]) to upload no files. Unix style pathname pattern expansion is supported.
+               For example, you can pass '*.py' to upload all python source files from the current directory.
+               For recursion lookup use '**/*.py' (for Python 3.5 and later). For more information see glob library.
+            params (dict|None): Optional. Parameters of the experiment. After experiment creation params are read-only.
+               Parameters are displayed in the experiment’s Parameters section and each key-value pair can be
+               viewed in experiments view as a column.
+            properties (dict|None): Optional default is {}. Properties of the experiment.
+               They are editable after experiment is created. Properties are displayed in the experiment’s Details and
+               each key-value pair can be viewed in experiments view as a column.
+            tags (list|None): Optional default []. Must be list of str. Tags of the experiment.
+               They are editable after experiment is created (see: append_tag() and remove_tag()).
+               Tags are displayed in the experiment’s Details and can be viewed in experiments view as a column.
