| ## Introduction | |
| We introduce JanusCoder and JanusCoderV, a suite of open-source foundational models designed to establish a unified visual-programmatic interface for code intelligence. | |
| This model suite is built upon open-source language models (such as Qwen3-8B and 14B) and multimodal models (such as Qwen2.5-VL and InternVL3.5-8B). The JanusCoder series is trained on JANUSCODE-800K—the largest multimodal code corpus to date, generated by an innovative synthesis toolkit, covering everything from standard charts to complex interactive Web UIs and code-driven animations. | |
| This enables the models to uniformly handle diverse visual-programmatic tasks, such as generating code from textual instructions, visual inputs, or a combination of both, rather than building specialized models for isolated tasks. JanusCoder excels at flexible content generation (like data visualizations and interactive front-ends) as well as precise, program-driven editing of visual effects and complex animation construction. | |

| ## Quick Start | |
| **Transformers** | |
| The following provides demo code illustrating how to generate text using JanusCoder-8B. | |
| > Please use transformers >= 4.55.0 to ensure the model works normally. | |
| ```python | |
| from transformers import AutoTokenizer, AutoModelForCausalLM | |
| import torch | |
| model_name = "internlm/JanusCoder-8B" | |
| tokenizer = AutoTokenizer.from_pretrained(model_name) | |
| model = AutoModelForCausalLM.from_pretrained(model_name, device_map="auto", torch_dtype="auto") | |
| messages = [ | |
| { | |
| "role": "user", | |
| "content": [ | |
| {"type": "text", "text": "Create a line plot that illustrates function y=x."}, | |
| ], | |
| } | |
| ] | |
| inputs = tokenizer.apply_chat_template(messages, add_generation_prompt=True, tokenize=True, return_dict=True, return_tensors="pt").to(model.device, dtype=torch.bfloat16) | |
| generate_ids = model.generate(**inputs, max_new_tokens=32768) | |
| decoded_output = processor.decode(generate_ids[0, inputs["input_ids"].shape[1] :], skip_special_tokens=True) | |
| print(decoded_output) | |
| ``` | |
