Hi @Fantahun,
As I posted on the earlier thread,
I think the concern is whether you're allowed to web host apps like Prodigy on Colab based on their terms.
However, I'm curious about why you're considering Colab when there are many other better app hosting environments out there already. As the FAQ shows, Colab is really for interactive data analysis, not app hosting.
We've written deployment docs that show (as one example) how to use Digital Ocean. Alternatively, you could use Heroku too. Granted, these may cost some money -- a few dollars -- but that cost will save you a ton of headaches.
Alternatively, if you're trying to run Prodigy for other annotators not connected to your network/machine, we also mention how you can use grok to run Prodigy locally but provide over a public URL so other colleagues can annotate.
If you're solely trying to avoid any cost, I'd consider Hugging Face spaces or Modal. We've been playing around with Modal recently and it's a great service. Have you tried one of these?
