# Photo Categorizer

Add photos to a browser library where each one is sorted into a category as it loads. Edit the label list, re-sort the whole library at once, and filter down to any single category. Nothing downloads until you load a model.

**Install**

```bash
npx shadcn@latest add @localmode/ui/blocks/photo/photo-categorizer
```
