"Building on the web is like working with the perfect clay. It's malleable and can become almost anything. But too often, frameworks try to hide the web's best parts away from us. Today, we're looking at PyView, a project that brings the real-time power of Phoenix LiveView directly into the Python world. I'm joined by Larry Ogrodnek to dive into PyView."
"Larry is the creator of PyView, a project that aims to bring the server-side rendering magic of Phoenix LiveView to the Python world. His motivation stems from a desire to simplify the modern web stack, moving away from the complexity of managing separate Single Page Application (SPA) frontends and returning to a model where the server drives the state and logic, while still maintaining the rich interactivity users expect."
PyView brings server-driven, real-time UI patterns from Phoenix LiveView into Python, enabling interactive applications without a separate SPA frontend. Larry Ogrodnek is a seasoned software engineer with a background in distributed systems and web development who moved from Java and Scala to Python and works on medical coding automation at Fathom. PyView aims to simplify the modern web stack by keeping state and logic on the server while preserving rich interactivity in the browser. The project relies on async/await for concurrent connection handling and WebSockets for persistent two-way communication. Server-side rendering generates HTML on the server for faster initial loads and consistent state.
