Show HN: Taupy – fast Python desktop apps without Electron

https://github.com/S1avv/taupy
2•s1jor•1h ago
I’ve tried building small desktop apps in Python multiple times. Every time it ended the same way: frameworks felt heavy and awkward, like Electron felt exrteamly overkill. Even when things worked, apps were big and startup was slow (most of them). so I started experimenting with a different approach and created my own, I tried to focus on performance and on making the developer experience as simple as possible. It's a desktop framework that lets you build fast native apps using Python as a backend (with optional React/Vite, python or just html/js/css for the UI)

I’m actively collecting early feedback. Would you try taupy in a real project?

Why or why not? I just really need your honest opinion and any advice you might have
