vue.py VS Pebble

I'm talking entirely out of my rear end, but I'm curious if there is any validity to some of these projects that let you run pythonic code in the browser, either through Webassembly or brpython. For example, this projects https://github.com/stefanhoelzl/vue.py claims to let you write Vue.js in Python in the browser, which then gets turned into regular Vue.js components. I imagine a performance penalty, but a developer performance benefit of allowing something else to run on top and make a more composable experience.

Or is this barking up the wrong tree entirely?

Pebble, inspired by PHP’s Twig, similar to Python’s Jinja2, Ruby’s Liquid & NodeJS’s Nunjucks.

If it's a simple project and you're not affraid of writing html & css, tbh I would suggest freemarker or Pebble (https://github.com/PebbleTemplates/pebble). To make things dynamic, you can use a bit of javascript (even some Vue.js there and there).

When it comes to server-side template in Java, I also prefer Twig/Jinja/Liquid-like engines. In Java, there are two known engines of such type -JTwig and Pebble Templates. I have tried both and prefer the latter - Pebble. JTwig, btw, is no longer maintained.

Have you tried https://pebbletemplates.io/ for Java?

I haven't used it extensively, so I can't speak how it compares to Django in larger setups.
