SQLPage – Building a full web application with nothing but SQL queries [video]
It’s interesting to me how far you have pushed the SQL language in this framework, such that it truly is “SQL only”.
The challenge as I see it with enabling analysts to build websites is that you need to build abstractions to get from familiar (SQL, yaml) - the language of analytics, to new (HTML, CSS, JS) - the language of the web browser
As one of the maintainers of Evidence (https://evidence.dev), one of the things I’ve often considered is how accessible our syntax is to analysts. Our syntax combines SQL and Markdown, with MDX style components e.g.
The are inherently webdev-ey, and I do think they put off potential users.
On the flip-side, by adhering to web standards, you get extensibility out of the box, and working out what to do is just a Google search away.
Anyway, thanks for the thought provoking piece.

Blazer: Business Intelligence Made Simple
Dataclips was my first experiences writing SQL.
Writing code was a markedly better DX that building dashboards in Tableau, which is why I'm now working on https://evidence.dev - a SSG for creating data from SQL and markdown

Apache Superset
Full fledged BI tools like Superset and Metabase are amazing for their intended use cases.
But they may be an overkill if your primary use case is to infrequently build semi-interactive reports for non-technical end-users and your use cases are are mostly covered by standard graphs & tables. Esp. so if you are familiar with SQL and have access to the underlying data source. Two nifty utilities I have found to be very useful for latter kind of use cases are SQLPage and Evidence.
They make it very convenient to whip out some SQL and convert that to a neat professional looking web ui that can be forwarded to an end user. In case of Evidence it is a statically generated site, and in case of SQLPage it is a web app that connects to a live database.

A love letter to Apache Echarts
We used ECharts to build our charting library at Evidence and it’s been a great experience overall (https://evidence.dev).
We started with D3 and a few other tools, but felt that we get a lot more out of the box with ECharts, like interactivity and an events API. ECharts is also a lot more extensible than people give it credit for.
If anyone is curious, we documented the process of selecting a charting library after assessing several options: https://github.com/evidence-dev/evidence/issues/136

Observable 2.0, a static site generator for data apps
The new direction seems very similar to what evidence has been doing for a while

PRQL as a DuckDB Extension
I'm quite excited about this, and would also love to have it distributed as an NPM package.
I work on an OSS web framework for reporting/ decision support applications (https://github.com/evidence-dev/evidence), and we use WASM duckDB as our query engine. Several folks have asked for PRQL support, and this looks like it could be a pretty seamless way to add it.

Nota is a language for writing documents, like academic papers and blog posts
> Not sure the language you choose matters as much as making the API usable by a wide audience.
Fully agree with this, and having typeset my masters thesis and later my resume using LaTeX, I think that the “authoring experience” is 100% the place to focus on improving.
If you’re interested in the “markup to document publishing” space, you might also be interested in the open-source report publishing tool I’m now working on, Evidence (https://github.com/evidence-dev/evidence)
It’s similarly based on markdown, though uses code fences to execute code, HTML style tags for charts and components, and {…} for JavaScript, i.e.

Show HN: Buefy Web Components for Streamlit
While building dashboards in Streamlit, I found myself really missing Buefy's (Bulma) modern web components.
Specially due to the inability to add new values to Streamlit's multiselect [1], some missing controls like a polished image carousel [2] or a highly customizable data table.
Long story short, we put together streamfy (Streamlit + Buefy) as an MIT licensed project in GitHub to bring Buefy to Streamlit.
Demo: https://streamfy.streamlit.app
All the form components are implemented, missing half of other non-form UX components. There is plenty of room for PRs, testing, feedback, documentation, example, etc.
Please send issues and contributions to GitHub project [3] and general feedback to X / Twitter [4]
Thanks!

Revolutionizing Real-Time Alerts with AI, NATs and Streamlit
Imagine you have an AI-powered personal alerting chat assistant that interacts using up-to-date data. Whether it's a big move in the stock market that affects your investments, any significant change on your shared SharePoint documents, or discounts on Amazon you were waiting for, the application is designed to keep you informed and alert you about any significant changes based on the criteria you set in advance using your natural language. In this post, we will learn how to build a full-stack event-driven weather alert chat application in Python using pretty cool tools: Streamlit, NATS, and OpenAI. The app can collect real-time weather information, understand your criteria for alerts using AI, and deliver these alerts to the user interface.

Using LangServe to build REST APIs for LangChain Applications
In this tutorial, you'll construct a fully functional Streamlit application from the ground up. Streamlit lets you turn simple data scripts into web applications without traditional front-end tools. This application will be capable of downloading audio from any YouTube video, transcribing it using Deepgram, and then summarizing the content with the assistance of Mistral 7B, all streamlined through the capabilities of Langchain.
