## Choose when

### Choose edit-mind if…

- License: edit-mind is Other, deepseek-pp is Apache-2.0.
- Requirements: Necessitates Docker for running all components within containers.; Needs manual configuration of Docker file sharing on macOS and Windows systems..
- Tags unique to edit-mind: ai, computer-vision, face-recognition, ml.
- Also covers Computer Vision.
- edit-mind ships Docker support for self-hosted deployment.
