streamlit#

Getting started with streamlit an open-source app framework?

First impressions#

The "hello" demo gives a good impression of capabilities. -- could be useful

Focus more on data, rather than full on web development.

Has a growing list of components - from the community?

Plan now is some quick experimentation using the exploring-australian-curriculum project

And in summary - App model

Streamlit apps are Python scripts that run from top to bottom
Every time a user opens a browser tab pointing to your app, the script is re-executed
As the script executes, Streamlit draws its output live in a browser
Scripts use the Streamlit cache to avoid recomputing expensive functions, so updates happen very fast
Every time a user interacts with a widget, your script is re-executed and the output value of that widget is set to the new value during that run.
Streamlit apps can contain multiple pages, which are defined in separate .py files in a pages folder.
