remi VS nicegui

Have you considered a remote use case, using something like https://github.com/rawpython/remi ? My SD machine is a headless Linux box, so I'd love to be able to run this on the server where it's local to the images (and perhaps have a multi-image / gallery view)?

How does it compare with remi? https://github.com/rawpython/remi

Looking at the examples, for quick UIs, REMI seems simpler. And PySimpleGUI (https://github.com/PySimpleGUI/PySimpleGUI) offers REMI as a backend to deploy on web too (PySimpleGUI is pretty simple to learn).

Making GUIs is always a fair amount of work/overhead on whatever you are working on, and I like to stay in Python when possible (I've used REMI (https://github.com/rawpython/remi) to create web apps before in Python). Thanks for creating this. I look forward to updates!

This is cool. How does it compare to Remi? I haven’t used it but I am curious

remi works by pre-defining js and html elements

I'd like to point to the excellent REMI [1] library that provides similar capabilities to Lona. You can create web apps by only writing Python. They can also be executed as GUI programs. You can even choose REMI to be the output backend of PySimpleGUI [2].

Not sure what the differences are, but good to know there are similar approaches :) Maybe every project can learn from each other. Thanks for sharing!

I have installed the last version of REMI (from https://github.com/dddomodossola/remi). When I launch the examples, like hello_world, all is perfectly displayed but the obtained UI is not reactive: no effect when I click on buttons, etc. I tried with Python 2 and 3.

I never used mpld3, but you can see an example of matplotlib here remi/matplotlib_app.py at master · dddomodossola/remi (github.com) .

python3 -m pip install git+https://github.com/dddomodossola/remi.git

I was looking at this space and nicegui seemed like the best ootb experience.

Dash is similar in spirit, as a "build web UIs with Python" framework. Dash seems more similar to nicegui (https://nicegui.io) architecturally than to Hyperdiv. Like nicegui, it builds a static dom that is then mutated via callbacks or data bindings.

By contrast, Hyperdiv lays out UI declaratively based on state, and when state changes, the app re-runs, generating an updated UI. Streamlit and Hyperdiv seem to work similarly, though I'm not sure how Streamlit handles state and state-based layout.

For native GUI, DearPyGui[0] as modern as you can.

For browser web-based GUI, you can use nicegui[1]

I want to bring to attention a set of frameworks that make webdevelopment using Python simple and fun. The popular opinion maybe that webpages developed with Python maybe slow. But this is not the case. Do checkout https://github.com/ofjustpy/ofjustpy/, https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/ and https://github.com/justpy-org/justpy . All these frameworks are build on top of Starlette and make web development really easy. If you want simple and ready to use the nicegui is the choice. If you want fast, scalable, and more control then give ofjustpy a try.

Yes, NiceGUI aims for a very gentle learning curve. Coming from Streamlit I suspect your main adaptation will be that in NiceGUI you need to write valid Python code. Streamlit constantly reevaluates your script which feels nice and easy but creates lots of problems down the road. See https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/discussions/21.

Auth is a big limitation. It's not a built-in component, they have [an example](https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/blob/main/examples/aut...) using the FastAPI layer for auth, but I haven't had time the time to try implementing it. It's definitely not something you get out of the box with NiceGUI.

For scaling, I am viewing it mostly as an internal tool builder. I wouldn't recommend it for external applications. So as far as scaling an internal app I think it works fine. [Their website](https://nicegui.io) is built with NiceGUI, and it works fine, but you can feel the lag occasionally on some of their larger demo pages.

Well, I was at PyCon Ireland last weekend and I missed the NiceGUI talk. I hear postive things about it and anything shiney and anything frontend-related always catches my attention (although I admit talking to a friend when I missed this talk was just as fun, and it was worth it).
