  • pywebview

    Build GUI for your Python program with JavaScript, HTML, and CSS

  • In case anyone else is unfamiliar:

    > pywebview uses native GUI for creating a web component window: WinForms on Windows, Cocoa on macOS, QT or GTK on Linux and Kivy for Android.

  • neutralinojs

    Portable and lightweight cross-platform desktop application development framework

  • We tried using pywebview for a cross-platform desktop app when it was version 3.x and some of the features were limited, especially when it came to systray interactions. Will have to try it out again. In the end, for that specific project, we ended up settling on NeutralinoJS. Wails was another big contender but due to limited GoLang resources in-house, we decided not to use it. Reference: https://neutralino.js.org/

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • python-build-standalone

    Produce redistributable builds of Python

  • Bundling Python isn't too bad if you find the right tools for it.

    I really like https://github.com/indygreg/python-build-standalone and https://github.com/indygreg/PyOxidizer

    A bundled, built standalone Python can be 16 to 32MB (including the full standard library, which you can strip down to just the bits you use to save size). Not tiny, but probably not worth switching programming languages over.

  • PyOxidizer

    A modern Python application packaging and distribution tool

  • webview

    Updated bindings for Webview for Nim. (by neroist)

  • If you love Python, but envy the compiled-binary-ness of Go, you should check out Nim, and Nim bindings for Webview: https://github.com/neroist/webview

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
