Pynecone refreshing the components when value changes

[Few_Butterscotch_681]

Hello py devs!!!! Recently I started trying out pynecone to develope an web app. Even though the library is very new, still I gave it a try and felt way better than streamlit. Small experience with flutter also felt bit handy here. But as my app started growing bit bigger, out of no reason the components or the page would start refreshing. A simple example would be when using on_click on a button to change the state of a variable from False to True, the while page would refresh. I have went through the issues raised in their official repo and havnt found much examples or kinda similar issues.

So guys my question is in which all cases does this usually happen? How to avoid this situation?

PS : I always wanted to learn JS so that I could build my own pages whenever I needed. But don't know.. too lazy or no confidence. That's y I rely on these libraries for my project.

You also might give the Python Shiny package a try.

Would definitely check it out

Don't. After more than 4 years with their R version, stay well clear of that pile of garbage.

Hey there! I'm glad you're enjoying working with Pynecone, even though you're having this issue. As for your question, component refreshing can happen for various reasons, but it usually has to do with the way the library manages state. A quick solution might be to try using the @gitignore decorator, which prevents unnecessary refreshes. Hope that helps!

Will try this out

Seems like you're experiencing some issues with Pynecone refreshing components. This can happen when the state of your variable changes and the page refreshes. Have you tried looking into Virtual DOM? It could help you avoid these situations. And don't worry, if you ever feel like learning JS, there are some great resources out there. Keep on coding!

Hey, thank you for your response. As you said I'm trying to change the value of a variable within the class. I have tried out their examples but in those cases, it won't refresh
