Xet is on the Hub blog post

[jsulz]

Congratulations! You've made it this far! Once merged, the article will appear at https://huggingface.co/blog. Official articles
require additional reviews. Alternatively, you can write a community article following the process here.

Preparing the Article

You're not quite done yet, though. Please make sure to follow this process (as documented here):

• Add an entry to _blog.yml.
• Add a thumbnail. There are no requirements here, but there is a template if it's helpful.
• Check you use a short title and blog path.
• Upload any additional assets (such as images) to the Documentation Images repo. This is to reduce bloat in the GitHub base repo when cloning and pulling. Try to have small images to avoid a slow or expensive user experience.
• Add metadata (such as authors) to your md file. You can also specify guest or org for the authors.
• Ensure the publication date is correct.
• Preview the content. A quick way is to paste the markdown content in https://huggingface.co/new-blog. Do not click publish, this is just a way to do an early check.

Here is an example of a complete PR: #2382

Getting a Review

Please make sure to get a review from someone on your team or a co-author.
Once this is done and once all the steps above are completed, you should be able to merge.
There is no need for additional reviews if you and your co-authors are happy and meet all of the above.

Feel free to add @pcuenca as a reviewer if you want a final check. Keep in mind he'll be biased toward light reviews
(e.g., check for proper metadata) rather than content reviews unless explicitly asked.

@rajatarya @ylow here's the migration analysis blog post.

I am most skeptical of the Takeaways and Ready. Xet. Go. sections but any and all feedback is welcome!

Aside:
When I put the CTA into https://huggingface.co/new-blog and do a preview it looks like the screenshots below, but I'm not 100% certain it will show up like that. Will probably ask for a sanity check from another reviewer before merging anyway and ask about it then.

really nice.

This makes me think, maybe we should have a hf.co/xet/status or similar page where everyone could (publicly) see which % of all HF repos are Xet-backed (and see an evolution over time). Could be quite cool/motivating!

Minor comments - I think making the Lessons Learned easier to grok is worth it.

Overall this looks GREAT - excited for it to go out!

Excellent - thanks all. Will wake up early tomorrow and publish to capitalize on catching more timezones for comms :)

@pcuenca if you have time, always happy to get a review from you as well, but no worries if not.
