Replicate vs Hugging Face

import Replicate from 'replicate';

const replicate = new Replicate({ auth: process.env.REPLICATE_API_TOKEN });

// Generate an image with FLUX
const output = await replicate.run(
  'black-forest-labs/flux-schnell',
  {
    input: {
      prompt: 'A photorealistic cat astronaut on the moon',
      num_outputs: 1,
    },
  }
);

console.log(output); // Array of image URLs

import { HfInference } from '@huggingface/inference';

const hf = new HfInference(process.env.HUGGINGFACE_API_KEY);

// Text generation
const result = await hf.textGeneration({
  model: 'mistralai/Mistral-7B-Instruct-v0.3',
  inputs: 'Explain quantum computing in one sentence:',
  parameters: { max_new_tokens: 100, temperature: 0.7 },
});

console.log(result.generated_text);
