Hi @kishore,

On top of what @sociallyakward shared, there are [maintained examples](https://github.com/huggingface/transformers/tree/master/examples) in the repo that show how to approach the most frequent tasks.

The documentation also has a [quick tour](https://huggingface.co/transformers/quicktour.html) that should help you as well.

I hope this is helpful to you and have fun learning!

You can try out this book. It is not specific to transformers but there are a lot of examples and code. [Transformers for Natural Language Processing: Build innovative deep neural network architectures for NLP with Python, PyTorch, TensorFlow, BERT, RoBERTa, and more eBook: Rothman, Denis: Amazon.in: Kindle Store](https://www.amazon.in/dp/B08S977X8K/)

My personal favorite resources to learn more about HuggingFace Transformers are:

- @abhishek’s Youtube channel: [Abhishek Thakur - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/c/AbhishekThakurAbhi/playlists) (take a look at the BERT playlist for example)
- ChrisMcCormickAI: [ChrisMcCormickAI - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCoRX98PLOsaN8PtekB9kWrw/playlists)

In addition to the other great suggestions in this thread, you may also be interested in a book that Thomas, Leandro and I are currently writing on 🤗 Transformers: [Natural Language Processing with Transformers [Book]](https://www.oreilly.com/library/view/natural-language-processing/9781098103231/)

You can view the draft chapters if you have an O’Reilly account, and the final version should be out later this year 🙂
