Humbly recommend when you share a product, you include a link to it ;)

Jupyter is suited for whatever you want to do with it. Voila exists to enable the use case of re-generating notebooks on a CI/CD system: https://github.com/voila-dashboards/voila

Anyways, seems like the templating is more powerful than the one being offered by Jupyter Notebooks.

Good luck and much success with it :)

i don't understand why everyone isn't just using voila. it's so much better than streamlit or gradio. but that's just my opinion i guess.

Ill have to check it out and see how it compares to voilà and holoviz panel. What I like about Holoviz panel is you can create a data web app from code that resides in a notebook or create a completely standalone app from just plain py scripts, and it supports many different visualization backends. I have found it to be the more flexible and generalizable data web app framework among the others I have come across (like Voilà, Dash, Plotly, and Streamlit).

Any insights what the differences between this and Voila are? https://github.com/voila-dashboards/voila

A nifty little alternative to voila, one might say.

If you are comfortable working in a Jupyter Notebook you can combine ipywidgets & Voila.

I really like this idea of using Python to create both the frontend and backend. Another lib doing this is https://solara.dev/ . Something I particularly like about Solara is that you can interactively build your app in a Jupyter Notebook, since behind the scenes it's using ipywidgets.

Has anyone compared Solara and Reflex and can comment on pros/cons? Are there other options in this space? Maybe https://shiny.posit.co/py/ ?

Would you consider giving Shiny (for Python) a try? https://shiny.posit.co/py/ It's (I hope) pretty close to Streamlit in ease of use for getting started, but reactive programming runs all the way through it. The kind of app you're talking about are extremely natural to write in Shiny, you don't have to keep track of state yourself at all.

If you decide to give it a try and have trouble, please email me (email in profile) or drop by the Discord (https://discord.gg/yMGCamUMnS).

The equivalent of shiny in python is shiny for python: https://shiny.posit.co/py/

I'm not sure how usable it is, but Shiny for Python exists: https://shiny.rstudio.com/py/

There's Shiny for Python - originally for R - but it's only Alpha status: https://shiny.rstudio.com/py/
