NaturalCAD Space Runtime Notes

Intention

The Hugging Face Space should run the leanest useful version of NaturalCAD.

What the Space really needs

• app.py
• root requirements.txt
• apps/gradio-demo/app/main.py
• selected branding assets used by the README
• lightweight artifacts directories with .gitkeep

What the Space does not need for MVP runtime

• apps/backend-api/
• apps/web-visualizer/
• legacy archive material
• local generated runs/log files

Why .hfignore exists

The repository can still hold planning material and future infrastructure, while the Space runtime stays lighter and less confusing.
