Decisions about Streamlit
Here are some stack decisions, common use cases and reviews by companies and developers who chose Streamlit in their tech stack.
Matt Kiernander
We have a python app currently built with Streamlit.
In order to deliver this to customers, we need to shield the codebase and make it executable (for both macOS and Windows users).
Does anyone have any advice on bundling a Python app into an executable?
All we're hoping to do is package the Streamlit app into .exe or something similar.
