PyScript - Run Python in the Browser! Will It Crush Javascript?!

In this video we'll look at PyScript to run Python on a Webpage!

PyScript is a very cool project from the people at Anaconda that allows you to run Python straight on a webpage without any backend frameworks!

It's very early days, and there are a lot of problems with the project...but you can still check it out and play with it while they work on buidling out a stable version!

The Heisenberg of Python...

As always, great video man

[pragyanprabhu]

Really forward to watch your pyscript courses

[MobbyG]

Pretty cool! Can’t wait to see what we can really do with it

[stefenleung]

But why? anything python can do but javascript can't?
the main concern is how the python work with html and css. What's the method to get element id/class? can we directly write html content into the html page with python?
I see it can work with numpy, matplotlib. Would like to see a tutorial or demo on those module work.

If you dl it you need to compile the typescript which will create the pyscript js file, probably in a build/ directory, but it should be in the same folder as src/ is in

[MrChrisLia]

do you think you could run tkinter inside? and possibly actualyl running an app that way? lol i do worry about cross site scripting though

[timonnjuhigu]

Wow exciting, it's gonna be a game changer!

[arijitkumarkhanra]

How can I use it to take an input and like use the python script though it?

[chuang]

I guess, When the page show in the browser, Actually is the browser send the script to the server then server run the script return the result send to the browser.

[kevincodes]

is it JavaScript that allows you to run Python, or actual Python? I also didn't see documentation on the website but I've seen example of it connecting to the DOM, which is pretty neat

[CharlesStarbuck]

I think I see a python version of Electron in our future

[ThankYouESM]

There's also Brython which I long ago somehow forgot to check out.

[errorpagenotfound.]

I have seen a few tutorials but none show any functionality from the client side ie interactivity on the rendered web page. That is the whole point of using js so the web page viewer can directly interact with the page and change it. I can't find a single example of pyscript having that functionality so the question is what is it for? Not trying to be negative.

How to save things on tkinter like example: You typed words on entry, and if you close the app and open it again, it will save the words

[acs]
