Episode notes

This chapter delves into the Python frontend framework PewPie, discussing its use of components, routers, and deep linking in single-page applications (SPAs). The conversation covers handling routes, implementing SPAs with history mode for bookmarking, and working with external data through APIs. It also touches on tools like Beautiful Soup 4 for data parsing, refs for managing state changes, and potential future improvements for the PewPie framework.

Python is one of the most popular languages of the current era. It dominates data science, it an incredible choice for web development, and its many people's first language. But it's not super great on front-end programing, is it? Frameworks like React, Vue and other JavaScript frameworks rule the browser and few other languages even get a chance to play there. But with pyscript, which I've covered several times on this show, we have the possibility of Python on the front end. Yet it's not really a front end framework, just a runtime in the browser. That's why I'm excited to have Ken Kinder on the podcast to talk about his project PuePy, a reactive frontend framework in Python.
