Hi,

the MNIST dataset is already available on the Hub. You can use it as follows:
```python
import datasets
dataset_dict = datasets.load_dataset("mnist")
```

As for the conversion of TFDS datasets to HF datasets, we will be working on it in the coming months, so stay tuned.

I'm trying to convert a tfds dataset to a huggingface one.

I've tried:

1.       datasets-cli convert  --tfds_path ~/tensorflow_datasets/mnist/3.0.1/ --datasets_directory ~/.cache/huggingface/datasets/mnist/3.0.1/

2.       datasets-cli convert  --tfds_path ~/tensorflow_datasets/mnist/3.0.1/ --datasets_directory ~/.cache/huggingface/datasets/


and other permutations.
The script appears to be running and finishing without an error but when looking in the  huggingface/datasets/ folder nothing is created.
