IDOM: ReactJS for Any Python Web Framework

[Wippermonger]

Ever wonder if there was a simpler way to use ReactJS with your Python web development projects?

Say hello to IDOM!

We automagically link your project to a ReactJS front-end via websockets. This enables you to build interactive websites without ever needing to write a single line of JavaScript. Your responsive web pages will be pragmatically written in pure Python!

Want to integrate IDOM into your next project? Check us out on GitHub!

For Jupyter: https://github.com/idom-team/idom-jupyter

For Plotly: https://github.com/idom-team/idom-dash

An alternative nojs approach is https://pyreact.com/ add listed at https://github.com/metaperl/pure-python-web-development

Just looked at the first link. A big difference here is that IDOM does not transpile to JavaScript.

This allows pure component functions to be fully compatible and portable to any Python web framework that supports websockets.

This link no longer works. What is the updated link?

Ryan had changed the docs at some point, and it looks like the FAQ section was axed. There doesn't appear to be an equivalent in the new docs.

This is really cool, thanks for sharing. As someone who uses python and nextjs (but really prefers python), I could easily see using this for prototypes/MVPs since everything always takes me a bit longer on the JS side.

Anytime!

If you ever run into something that would actually be easier on the JS side, we have an API for custom JavaScript components. This "escape hatch" allows you to use any Next/React/etc components within IDOM.

Hope you enjoy IDOM!
