import spacy_streamlit

models = ["en_core_web_sm", "en_core_web_md"]
default_text = "Sundar Pichai is the CEO of Google."
spacy_streamlit.visualize(models, default_text)

gives the error:

Based on your traceback, it looks like you called your file spacy_streamlit.py, which is the same name as the module spacy_streamlit. This means that your local module (the file) is shadowing the indtalled module (the package). You can read more about this concept here: http://python-notes.curiousefficiency.org/en/latest/python_concepts/import_traps.html#the-name-shadowing-trap

If you rename spacy_streamlit.py to something else, it should work as expected 🙂
