      <description>&lt;p&gt;Most chatbot UIs only allow text inside the bubble.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you want a slider, rating, calendar, file upload - you have to build it as a separate page outside the chat.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I built a way to put controls INSIDE the bubble itself where they live and calculate.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Live demo no install (10 seconds):&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://huggingface.co/spaces/Nagendra75/noth5-free-lite" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://huggingface.co/spaces/Nagendra75/noth5-free-lite&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;GitHub + pip wrapper you can read:&lt;br&gt;
&lt;a href="https://github.com/Nagendra75/NOTH5-FREE-LITE" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://github.com/Nagendra75/NOTH5-FREE-LITE&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;What it does:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Slider and Star Rating render INSIDE chat bubble, not outside&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Values calculate inside bubble&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Offline - no data sent anywhere&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Why EXE?&lt;br&gt;
NOTH5 has its own compiler (Python alone can't do controls inside bubble), so EXE contains NOTH5 engine. Pip version is just a 10-line wrapper you can read in demo_app.py.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I'm testing waters before releasing full NOTH5 Factory:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;ul&gt;
&lt;li&gt;105 controls (calendar, file upload, map, chart, table, etc)&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Local DB that runs 75k req/sec inside bubble&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;

&lt;p&gt;If you build chatbots, does this solve a real problem for you?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Which 2-3 controls would you want to see running in browser next (like HuggingFace, no download)? Calendar? File upload? Map?&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;This is free lite with 2 controls to test if the idea is useful before I package more.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;pip install noth5-free-lite==81.2.0 - 2.1 kB - 105/105 PASS&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Live Demo: &lt;a href="https://huggingface.co/spaces/Nagendra75/noth5-free-lite" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://huggingface.co/spaces/Nagendra75/noth5-free-lite&lt;/a&gt; - slider draggable 71% PENDING -&amp;gt; APPROVED -&amp;gt; YES - rating clickable 3/5.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;PyPI: &lt;a href="https://pypi.org/project/noth5-free-lite/" rel="noopener noreferrer"&gt;https://pypi.org/project/noth5-free-lite/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Code - 10 lines:&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;from flask import Flask&lt;br&gt;
from noth5_free_lite import render_slider, render_rating&lt;br&gt;
app = Flask(&lt;strong&gt;name&lt;/strong&gt;)&lt;br&gt;
@app.route("/")&lt;br&gt;
def home():&lt;br&gt;
    s = render_slider(value=75, label="Progress")&lt;br&gt;
    r = render_rating(value=4, label="Rating")&lt;br&gt;
    return f"{s}&lt;br&gt;{r}"&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Core factory 20 controls hidden - D:\NOTH5_EXCLUSIVE - demo shows only 2 - smartest person cannot break logic - 1321 bytes safe.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Why 2 controls FREE? Devs see live demo -&amp;gt; notice -&amp;gt; pip install -&amp;gt; use in chatbot feedback form, RAG bubble, Flask API.&lt;/p&gt;
