PyFladesk

create desktop application by using Flask and QtWebKit

IDEA

Rather than open Flask app in user browser, create a QWebview and then run Flask app on it.

Notice

I'm new to python and I'm going to improve my python knowledge. I was looking for new way to create desktop applications. Create this project for learning purpose. Maybe/surely my codes need to more improvements.

How to use

add your routes in routes.py

ex:

from flask import Flask, render_template

app = Flask(__name__)

@app.route('/')
def index():
    return render_template('index.html')
  

then run your desktop app

> python pyfladesk.py

Sample RSS Reader app

I wrote a sample Rss reader app by PyFladesk. you can find here.

it works fine in Windows 7 but I didn't test it in Linux or OSx. if you did it please let me know about it.
