desktop and mobile packaging

[rraammiinn]

I don't think pynecone be able to translate any python code to js so it probably handles all events on backend and returns the results so it's costly for a web application but not for a desktop or mobile app so I think pynecone is more suitable for desktop and mobile apps where both server and client are on same machine and latency is quite low so why not use pynecone for these applications instead of web ?

I was thinking the same thing. It would be great if we could create desktop apps with reflex-dev.

Desktop apps will be easier to potentially implement in the future, with the use of something like electron.

any plan on this in the near future?

I think capacitor is the path to least resistance, see: https://github.com/orgs/reflex-dev/discussions/3152

wrap reflex to desktop app, two possible way

1. use pywebview: https://pywebview.flowrl.com/
2. use electron: https://github.com/gnoviawan/fast-api-electron-js
