In the maker’s words, at launch

Hey HN community, I'm excited to share Starfyre, a cutting-edge library that enables you to create front-end applications by leveraging the power of Python. It's perfect for those who love Python and want to extend its capabilities to frontend development. Key Features: * Reactive Frontend Development: Starfyre allows you to build reactive frontends using only Python. This means you can create highly interactive and real-time applications with ease. * Effortless Interactive Application Creation: With Starfyre, the process of creating interactive applications becomes straightforward. You define your frontend with observables and reusable components, using a JSX like syntax in Python called Pyxides. * Built with Pyscript and WASM: This innovative approach ensures that your applications run natively in the browser, providing a seamless user experience. * Minimal Effort, Maximum Impact: Starfyre is designed for minimalistic yet effective development. You can create complex, real-time applications without the usual hassle. It is fairly early in development but here is a sample codebase - https://github.com/sparckles/create-starfyre-app Do let me know what you folks think of it. Any feedback is highly appreciated

    WASM-powered codespaces for Python notebooks on GitHub2025 · docs.marimo.io · ▲204

    Hi HN! Last year, we shared marimo [1], an open-source reactive notebook for Python with support for execution through WebAssembly [2]. We wanted to share something new: you can now run marimo and Jupyter notebooks directly from GitHub in a Wasm-powered, codespace-like environment. What makes this powerful is that we mount the GitHub repository's contents as a filesystem in the notebook, making it really easy to share notebooks with data. All you need to do is prepend 'marimo.app' to any Python notebook on GitHub. Some examples: - Jupyter Notebook:…

    Marimo – open-source reactive Python notebook – running in WASM2024 · marimo.app · ▲102

    Hi HN! Last month, we shared marimo [1][2], an open-source reactive notebook for Python. For those who missed it, marimo notebooks are reproducible, stored as Python files, executable as Python scripts, and deployable as web apps. It’s now possible to run marimo notebooks entirely in the browser via WebAssembly (WASM). - A marimo tutorial as a WASM notebook: https://marimo.app/l/c7h6pz - Training a neural network with Karpathy’s micrograd: https://marimo.app/l/xpd4te - Visualizing attractors, as a read-only app:…

    Hyperdiv – Reactive, immediate-mode web UI framework for Python2024 · github.com · ▲170

    Hello HN, I'm releasing Hyperdiv (https://hyperdiv.io), a framework for rapidly developing reactive browser UIs in Python, with immediate-mode syntax and using Shoelace (https://shoelace.style) as its built-in component system. This short coding video will give you a good idea of what it is: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4XJKfxaqvGE I wrote a brief article about the motivation and approach: https://hyperdiv.io/intro.html Hyperdiv doesn't aim to compete with serious full-stack frameworks. The core aim was to make it easy and fast to…

    Probly – Spreadsheets, Python, and AI in the browser2025 · github.com · ▲171

    Probly was built to reduce context-switching between spreadsheet applications, Python notebooks, and AI tools. It’s a simple spreadsheet that lets you talk to your data. Need pandas analysis? Just ask in plain English, and the code runs right in your browser. Want a chart? Just ask. While there are tools available in this space like TheBricks, Probly is a minimalist, open-source solution built with React, TypeScript, Next.js, Handsontable, Hyperformula, Apache Echarts, OpenAI, and Pyodide. It's still a work in progress, but it's already useful for my daily tasks.
