+DVCLive is a Python library for logging machine learning metrics and other
+metadata in simple file formats, which is fully compatible with DVC.

+
+______________________________________________________________________
+
+# Quickstart
+
+## Install *dvclive*
+
+```console
+$ pip install dvclive
+```
+
+## Initialize DVC Repository
+
+```console
+$ git init
+$ dvc init
+$ git commit -m "DVC init"
+```
+
+## Example code
+
+Copy the snippet below as a basic example of the API usage:
+
+```python
+# train.py
+import random
+import sys
+from dvclive import Live
+
+with Live(save_dvc_exp=True) as live:
+    epochs = int(sys.argv[1])
+    live.log_param("epochs", epochs)
+    for epoch in range(epochs):
+        live.log_metric("train/accuracy", epoch + random.random())
+        live.log_metric("train/loss", epochs - epoch - random.random())
+        live.log_metric("val/accuracy",epoch + random.random() )
+        live.log_metric("val/loss", epochs - epoch - random.random())
+        live.next_step()
+```
+
+See [Integrations](https://dvc.org/doc/dvclive/ml-frameworks) for examples using
+DVCLive alongside different ML Frameworks.
+
+## Running
+
+Run couple of times passing different values:
+
+```console
+$ python train.py 5
+$ python train.py 5
+$ python train.py 7
+```
+
+## Comparing
+
+DVCLive outputs can be rendered in different ways:
+
+### DVC CLI
+
+You can use [dvc exp show](https://dvc.org/doc/command-reference/exp/show) and
+[dvc plots](https://dvc.org/doc/command-reference/plots) to compare and
+visualize metrics, parameters and plots across experiments:
+
+```console
+$ dvc exp show
+```
+
+```

+
+### DVC Extension for VS Code
+
+Inside the
+[DVC Extension for VS Code](https://marketplace.visualstudio.com/items?itemName=Iterative.dvc),
+you can compare and visualize results using the
+[Experiments](https://github.com/iterative/vscode-dvc/blob/main/extension/resources/walkthrough/experiments-table.md)
+and
+[Plots](https://github.com/iterative/vscode-dvc/blob/main/extension/resources/walkthrough/plots.md)
+views:
+
+![VSCode Experiments](./docs/vscode_experiments.png)
+
+![VSCode Plots](./docs/vscode_plots.png)
+
+While experiments are running, live updates will be displayed in both views.
+
+### DVC Studio
+
+If you push the results to [DVC Studio](https://dvc.org/doc/studio), you can
+compare experiments against the entire repo history:
+
+![Studio Compare](./docs/studio_compare.png)
+
+You can enable
+[Studio Live Experiments](https://dvc.org/doc/studio/user-guide/projects-and-experiments/live-metrics-and-plots)
+to see live updates while experiments are running.

+
+# Comparison to related technologies
+
+**DVCLive** is an *ML Logger*, similar to:
+
+- [MLFlow](https://mlflow.org/)
+- [Weights & Biases](https://wandb.ai/site)
+- [Neptune](https://neptune.ai/)
+
+The main difference with those *ML Loggers* is that **DVCLive** does not
+**require** any additional services or servers to run.
+
+Logged metrics, parameters, and plots are stored as plain text files that can be
+versioned by tools like Git or tracked as pointers to files in DVC storage.
+
+You can then use different [options](#comparing) to visualize the metrics,
+parameters, and plots across experiments.
