Train machine learning models collaboratively across distributed datasets without centralizing data—with easy setup, offline capability, and no servers required.\n\n![FL Training Process](https://github.com/OpenMined/syft-flwr/raw/main/notebooks/fl-diabetes-prediction/images/fltraining.gif)\n\n## Key Features\n\n- **File-Based Communication**: Train models without direct network connections—communication happens via file sync (Google Drive or [SyftBox](https://syftbox.net/))\n- **Zero Infrastructure**: No servers to maintain, no complex networking setup—just notebooks and file sync\n- **Offline Capable**: Asynchronous message passing enables training even with intermittent connectivity\n- **Privacy by Design**: Data never leaves its source—only model updates are shared\n- **Flower Integration**: Built on Flower's robust FL framework—supports FedAvg, custom strategies, and all standard Flower features\n\n## Quick Start\n\nThe easiest way to get started is with our **Google Colab tutorial**—no local setup required:\n\n📓 [Zero-Setup FL with Google Colab](notebooks/fl-diabetes-prediction/distributed-gdrive/README.md)\n\n## Example Notebooks\n\n| Example | Description | Communication |\n|---------|-------------|---------------|\n| [FL Diabetes (Google Drive)](notebooks/fl-diabetes-prediction/distributed-gdrive/README.md) | Train a diabetes prediction model across distributed Colab notebooks | Google Drive |\n| [FL Diabetes (SyftBox)](notebooks/fl-diabetes-prediction/distributed/README.md) | Train a diabetes prediction model across distributed machines | SyftBox |\n| [FL Diabetes (Local)](notebooks/fl-diabetes-prediction/local/README.md) | Local simulation for development and testing | Local |\n| [Federated Analytics](notebooks/federated-analytics-diabetes/README.md) | Query statistics from private datasets and aggregate them | SyftBox |\n| [FedRAG](notebooks/fedrag/README.md) | Privacy-preserving question answering with RAG | SyftBox |\n\n## Installation\n\nInstall from [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/syft-flwr/):\n\n```bash\npip install syft-flwr\n```\n\nOr install from source:\n\n```bash\npip install \"git+https://github.com/OpenMined/syft-flwr.git@main\"\n```\n\n\u003c!-- ## Documentation\n\n📚 [Full Documentation](https://syft-flwr-documentation.openmined.org/) --\u003e\n\n## Development\n\nSee [DEVELOPMENT.md](DEVELOPMENT.md) for development setup and guidelines.\n\n### Releasing\n\nSee [RELEASE.md](RELEASE.md) for the complete release process.\n\n## Community\n\n- 💬 [Slack](https://slack.openmined.org/) - Join #support-syftbox for questions\n- 🐛 [Issues](https://github.com/OpenMined/syft-flwr/issues) - Report bugs or request features\n- 🌟 Star this repo to support the project!\n\n## License\n\n[Apache 2.0](LICENSE)\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fopenmined%2Fsyft-flwr","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Fopenmined%2Fsyft-flwr","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Fopenmined%2Fsyft-flwr/lists"}
