Tiny Python library that turns functions into GUI apps


Hey! I made a small tool that lets you create GUI applications just by writing normal Python functions. It's inspired by FastAPI-Typer, but for desktop-mobile GUIs.

# Basic example:

from functogui import App, intUi, boolReturn

def iseven(number: int = intUi(4)) -> boolReturn:
    return number % 2 == 0

App(iseven)

That's it - it creates a complete GUI with a slider and shows the result in real-time. Useful for quick tools and prototypes when you don't want to mess with UI code.

Built with Kivy, supports file handling, image preview, and different input types. Would love to hear your thoughts or suggestions!

Developing locally after deployment? (Oauth issues)

I built my flask app and just deployed it on python anywhere. I updated my oauth credentials to point to the real site rather than localhost.

My login functionality no longer works locally (I'm only supporting Google login, no passwords/email).

How do others get around this? Perhaps have something set in the code so if app is running in debug mode the user skips login?

Built a Drag-and-Drop GUI Builder for CustomTkinter – Check It Out and Share Your Thoughts!

Hey Python devs!

I recently built a drag-and-drop GUI tool for customTkinter to simplify designing interfaces. It lets you visually create UIs and export the code directly, which has been super helpful for my projects.

I’d love to hear your thoughts and feedback on it! You can check it out on GitHub https://github.com/Proxlight/Buildfy-Free.git

I’m particularly interested in:
• Usability: Is the drag-and-drop interface intuitive?
• Features: What could make it even better?

Feel free to give it a try and let me know what you think. Any feedback would be amazing!

Thanks!

Where to host Flask App

Hi everyone! I just developed my first flask app, and needed some assistance in getting it deployed as I've never done it before. My app uses multiple databases (SQLite currently) to keep track of events and participation for an organization I am in. I originally was going to use render since it was free but since it seems like it refreshes it won't be a good fit since it will wipe my dbs. I then looked at creating a PostgreSQL database on render but their free tier only lasts a month. If there is a way to host this for free I'd love to do that since the org is only about \~100 people and the website wouldn't be in use constantly and the likelihood of concurrent writes is very low. I was wondering if anyone knew a place where I could host this web app (hopefully for free), or for low cost if I can use SQLite as I'd rather not update everything atp. If anyone has any advice or helpful resources I'd greatly appreciate it!

Different values in group by columns before and after group by in pandas dataframe

I had following code:

sum_columns = ['p', 'q', 'r', 'Ax', 'Ay', 'Az']
avg_columns = ['Bx', 'By', 'Bz', 'G2 C03']
agg_map = {col: 'sum' for col in sum_columns}
agg_map.update({col: 'mean' for col in avg_columns})

df = df.groupby(['MAC C01', 'MAC C02', 'MAC C03'], as_index=False).agg(agg_map)

Dataframe before group by:

```
p q r Ax Ay Az Bx By Bz G2 C03 MAC C01 MAC C02 MAC C03
0 0.0 0.0 0.1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0.0 0.00000 0.00000 0.0

Logic in Views vs Logic on Models

Hey folks,

Apparently this is a frequently discussed topic.

Im doing a project using DRF. In this context i feel like the Views that are basically APIs should have logic, but my approach so far was that whatever touches a model, goes in the model.

Concrete example: one of my APIs has to change the Status of a Sales order. Then i will create a method in the SalesOrder model that will do the status change, along with any particular validation that it might want to do (example if you're changing it to completed/closed, ensure theres no open amount and the items were delivered)

Can you give me your thoughts about this approach and if its worth moving everything to either the views or to another "business logic" layer (or both)?

I dont really have crazy calculations or bigass logic for anything in particular, but i rather learn the proper way


Looking online i see all kinds of recommendations, the logic layer as well as the Thick Models, as well as "Model is simply the ORM". So i feel like it doesnt really matter as long as its consistent and is useful for the individual project?

Need help hosting flask app

Hi,

I’m sure I’ll get hell for this as I often do, I’m an educator for a niche field and built a flask app with the help of ai, basically a flashcard tool to help me at my practice. App works great, no errors on the user side, now I want to host it so I can access it. Truth be told, I also want to share with others in my field.

I’m so frustrated with hosting, it’s true that ai led me down a road where I got lost, but it’s also true that I have a tool I couldn’t find anywhere else, a tool I’ve dreamed about since being in the field.

Any simple ways to get around this? Not opposed to fiverr, but I didn’t have great experience with them before. For the record I’ve tried PythonAnywhere, Heroku, and AWS and keep getting errors I cannot make sense of. I would LOVE to learn hosting so I could truly do it on my own, but tutorials go from “the back end talks to the front end” to “you need to configure the WSGI, route here route there” very quickly.

Flowkeeper -- a PySide6 (Python + Qt6) application

Greetings! Meet [Flowkeeper](https://flowkeeper.org/), a cross-platform desktop Pomodoro timer, which took me about a year to reach its current state. It is implemented in Python and relies on Qt6 for its UI. It supports recent macOS, Windows 10 and 11, and any mainstream Linux released within a couple of years, e.g. Ubuntu 22.04.

Feel free to reuse parts of it, or ask me any questions about how things are implemented.

# What My Project Does

It allows you plan your work for the day, and then execute it using Pomodoro Technique.

# Target Audience

Power users -- mainly creative professionals and students. Flowkeeper can be used in production and enterprise environments.

# Comparison

Compared to a typical Pomodoro timer, Flowkeeper:

* Implements Pomodoro Technique exactly as described in the [original book](https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://www.amherst.edu/system/files/media/Pomodoro%252520Guide_0.pdf&ved=2ahUKEwjNsqig_eWKAxW7U6QEHZQMA-8QFnoECAsQAQ&usg=AOvVaw20GKwRpyxshlCpBzcw7-40),
* Supports a wider range of desktop operating systems, including diverse Linux environments,
* Is more lightweight and performant (it's not based on Electron, and I routinely test it on a Core 2 Duo machine),
* Has portable versions and does not require admin rights to install,
* Is optimized for power users (keyboard shortcuts and rich set of settings),
* Does NOT have a paid version,
* Does NOT have a mobile version,
* Does NOT synchronize data across devices,
* Is NOT

Combining ThreadPoolExecutor and threading.Thread in the same python application

Is it okay to use both the threading.Thread and ThreadPoolExecutor class for managing tasks in application using threads. For example some part in the application using threading.Thread and other parts of the application using ThreadPoolExecutor. I think the latter will have its own thread pool and the former would create ad-hoc threads without using the thread pool.

Help! Is there no LSP and auto completions in Python & Django?

I have a code base running on Python 3.10.
I have tried pylsp, pyright & ruff but the moment I try and use something Django, The auto completions doesn't exist.

Users.objects() ? No completions or LSP documentations. Is this normal for python?

I have tried Golang, NodeJS and even C. It gives me atleast something to work with. Even to know type of a variable, I need to print with type().

Just want to know if there's something that I can do to make things easier.
