Python Desktop App

Learn how to make a desktop GUI application using Python, JavaScript, HTML, & CSS all thanks to pywebview.

pywebview is essentially a mini web-browser that you can control. It makes it really easy to write any python code to integrate directly to JavaScript. Building an app for pywebview is much like building a web application but a few key differences:

• Database optional
• Access to local users' file system
• Virtually no latency (between JavaScript and Python)
• Offline by default (no need to use the internet).

The advantage of using pywebview is that:

• Frontends can leverage web technology frontends like React, Vue, Angular, Bootstrap, Preact, and much more
• Incredibly small build size (roughly 20MB for a full application)
• Simple and powerful API
• Cross Platform (macOS, Windows, Linux)

Recommended skills

• Python basics
• JavaScript basics
• React/Vue/Angular experience is a plus
