django-unicorn VS reflex

Then there are stack-specific libraries: StimulusReflex for Rails, Phoenix LiveView, Laravel Livewire, Unicorn and Tetra for Django, Blazor for .NET, … and the list goes on.

- you get one of the best ORMs in existence with great relationship handling and generated admins

Not 1.0 yet but I'm using it in production and omgosh is it easy to crank out UIs.

There's a brilliant project called Django Unicorn that aims to be the equivalent of Laravel Livewire for Django. You should take a look.

That and HTMX + Alpine.js are a strong combination.

(I also had a bash at building a similar tool for Django called Tetra but unfortunately haven't had the time needed to commit to it: https://www.tetraframework.com)

I think all LiveView frameworks should be part of this.

Here are two Python ones I've tried:

I'm biased since I created https://www.django-unicorn.com/, but I have a few thoughts. :)

Have you looked into Django Unicorn?

Check out https://www.django-unicorn.com/ it is like htmx but is closer to Django.

When I was exploring the space, django-unicorn looked interesting also. But HTMX got me so far, so easily, that I didn't give unicorn a fair shake.

Hey thanks for the feedback. We're working on relaxing our dependencies [1] to make reflex more compatible. Do you remember what libraries you had the conflict with?

Thanks! Pue looks cool, thanks for sharing. I see some similarities to https://reflex.dev in terms of providing a declarative dom expression language with built-in conditionals and loop primitives.

In the dynamic world of web development, Python has emerged as a dominant force, especially in backend development – the primary focus of this blog post. Although it's worth mentioning that there are ongoing efforts to use Python for the frontend as well, like Reflex (previously known as Pynecone, they presumably had to change their name because of Pinecone vector database), which even garnered support from Y Combinator. Samuel Colvin (creator of Pydantic) is also working on FastUI (he literally just released the first version in December 2023).

They have a ready to use LLM chat App, which makes it more likely I will check it out.

We will use Reflex to build this chatbot.

To learn more about Reflex, you can read here: https://reflex.dev/

Reflex is an open-source, full-stack Python framework that makes it easy to build and deploy web apps in minutes. You have most of the features of a frontend library like Reactjs and a backend framework like Django in one with ease in development and deployment. All while developing in a single language PYTHON.
