It uses a reactive state model where UI components automatically update when state changes, similar to modern JavaScript frameworks but expressed entirely in Python. The framework compiles your Python code to a web application and serves it through Starlette and Granian, with real-time communication via WebSockets (python-socketio) for interactive features.\n\nThe package includes built-in component libraries (radix, recharts, plotly, markdown, and others) for common UI patterns, plus hosting and deployment tools. It targets developers who want to build interactive web applications without context-switching between languages, and supports modern Python versions (3.10 through 3.14). The framework is in active development with recent releases and a large community presence.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you want to build web applications entirely in Python and are comfortable with a framework in Beta status. The low install friction, active maintenance, permissive license, and zero known vulnerabilities make it a reasonable choice for prototyping and internal tools. For production systems requiring long-term stability guarantees, verify that the framework's maturity and component ecosystem meet your needs."},"id":"reflex","links":{"html":"https://skillfed.io/packages/reflex","md":"https://skillfed.io/packages/reflex.md","pypi":"https://pypi.org/project/reflex/"},"maintenance":{"status":"active"},"meta":{"latest_release":"2026-08-04","license_spdx":null,"license_treatment":"permissive","name":"reflex","python_support":"supports_current","summary":"Web apps in pure Python."},"popularity":{"monthly_downloads":417527,"position":6816,"tier":"top_15000"},"security":{"n_vulnerabilities":0},"version":"0.9.8"}
