Too often you see articles like this and they start with

$ import a_whole_bunch_of_stuff

Good to see that this is not the case here :)

The fast.ai course has a similar exercise in the beginning, but you'll still import the weights from somewhere else.

Their fast.ai v1 library has a very short implementation too (loading the MINIST example dataset and then using Resnet18):

    from fastai import *  
    from fastai.data import *  
    untar_data(MNIST_PATH)  
    data = image_data_from_folder(MNIST_PATH)  
    learn = ConvLearner(data, tvm.resnet18, metrics=accuracy)  
    learn.fit(1)

Done!
