Flask or Django users should be able to get started pretty quickly with FastHTML, and users of the preview that have switched over tell us that they're finding it easier and faster to create what they want in FastHTML.
Having said that, the people that will get the most out of it and folks that haven't got much prior web dev experience -- e.g. people who have just done some streamlit/gradio/etc apps, or maybe Python programmers that haven't written web apps at all. I mention this briefly on https://about.fastht.ml https://about.fastht.ml in the section "A new generation of coders":
> "Coding is the key to turning the ideas in your head into products and services that can help people. AI has recently made it easier to get started with coding, which means there are more people than ever before who can create useful stuff. But this new generation of coders do not generally have the same background as full-time software engineers. They may have been trained in a different field, or they may have learned to code on their own. We hope that FastHTML will make it easier for this new generation of coders to turn their ideas into reality. To create maintainable and scalable solutions."
- globalnode 2y agoI'm a hobby programmer and would never use the existing web ecosystem to write anything -- seems unnecessarily complicated. If I have a task to do I'll get it done in C/C++ or preferably Python. I do see the benefit of using the browser for cross platform UI under Python over say Tcl/Tk though, would this project be of help to someone like me that wants to keep it simple and just get something done for their own personal use?
- jph00 2y agoYes it should be a great fit. If you give it a try, and have any issues, we have a Discord community that can help: https://discord.gg/qcXvcxMhdP https://discord.gg/qcXvcxMhdP
