is Python Web UI Framework? Features • Composed only of Python code • No knowledge of front-end (HTML/CSS/JavaScript) • No knowledge of back-end APIs, communications, etc. • Interactive, from form input to result display • Interactive display of graphical representations, etc.
Application Comparison Web UI Frameworks • Python Code Only • Masking the front-end • Hiding communication details • Limited flexibility Server side Frameworks • Separate front-end • Decide on communication method • Often works with RDB • High degree of freedom vs
of Python Web UI Frameworks • Quickly create web apps • Can be created using only Python code • Easy to convert JupyterLab and other code into web apps • Easy hosting and no complicated configuration
of Python Web UI Frameworks • There are more than 10 projects • Last year was like a festival of Web UI frameworks • Find one you like and give it a try!
