flet VS capacitor

> When you run flet build command it ... Packages Python app using package command of serious_python package. -- https://flet.dev/docs/guides/python/packaging-app-for-distri...

It looks like Flet is for client-side code. It lets you write Flutter apps with Python instead of Dart.

> Simple Architecture - No more complex architecture with JavaScript frontend, REST API backend, database, cache, etc. With Flet you just write a monolith stateful app in Python only and get multi-user, realtime Single-Page Application (SPA). -- https://flet.dev

If I'm writing Python that runs on the mobile device, it must talk to a server to read & write data. Doesn't this still require an API backend, database, cache, etc?

I just learned of Flet (https://flet.dev) which seems interesting for Python. I may try this as well.

When developing or selecting an MRZ (Machine Readable Zone) recognition SDK, the primary challenge lies in finding an appropriate dataset for testing. Acquiring genuine MRZ images is challenging, and due to privacy concerns, they aren't publicly accessible. Therefore, crafting MRZ images becomes a practical solution. Fortunately, there's an open-source Python MRZ generator project, available for download from pypi, eliminating the need to start from scratch. This article aims to illustrate how to integrate and run Python scripts within web applications. First, We will showcase how to employ the Python MRZ SDK and Flet to construct a cross-platform MRZ generator. Subsequently, we will reuse the Python script with Pyodide, HTML5, and the Dynamsoft JavaScript MRZ SDK, creating an advanced online MRZ tool that can handle both MRZ creation and MRZ detection.

"The fastest way to build Flutter apps in Python" is the title of Flet's web page. As someone coming from the Flutter world reading the line I draw an ideal picture of "swapping Dart language for Python and magically having the whole power of Flutter framework and the tips of your fingers".

Well I haven't seen anyone mention Flet, which is pleasant (if maybe not all that complete) if you have Dart/Flutter experience, so increment your counter at least one. :-)

It should also be mentioned that the official VSCode Ionic Plugin is also capable of migrating your existing application. Capacitor v6 now also supports bun as a package manager.

> PWA optionally bundled with some native components for filing the gaps, as in Tauri.

Isn't that essentially Capacitor?

For the longest time, building desktop apps was a daunting task to web developers. That is, until technologies like Electron made creating these apps more approachable to a wider audience. Today, we’ve got a wide array of native applications built with solutions like Electron, Tauri, Capacitor, and many more. While these are great solutions, sometimes configuration can be tricky and the applications we create can become somewhat bloated in terms of memory usage.

The traditional alternative to Electon on mobile platforms is Capacitor (which uses the system webview):

Ionic Framework UI Components are used to build a website and then a mobile application is built using Ionic Capacitor. Ionic UI components are not required but are used for UX. The vue js code presented here will work fine in a separate application.

Welcome to Part Two of this four-part series on building a mobile game using open source technologies. We'll be using Phaser, along with Ionic, Capacitor, and Vue.
