Sure, we built the prototype with Python, Django, and a web interface. The idea being a user could run it and then just browse to localhost:<some port> and use the web UI for it.
We quickly realized the app was going to be 99% Javascript anyway so using something like atom-shell started to make a lot of sense.
We originally were targeting just OSX and Linux desktops, but using atom-shell opens up a path to Windows desktops much more easily for us.
The app needs to display a large of amount of changing data from the local machine and atom-shell + ReactJS, so far, is handling it just fine.
- ioedward 12y agoSo are you still shipping Python/Django as an executable with atom-shell? Or is this purely client-side javascript?
- frankwiles 12y agoJust atom-shell, it ended up being easier all around and no compelling reason to keep Python in the mix for this particular app.
- emehrkay 12y agoIt is possible to include python with this? That is interesting
