• Ask HN: Why don't smartphones encourage programming like early 80s computers?

  There are a few Python environments for iOS, and I'm sure Android also has some. Pythonista is probably one of the better ones. http://omz-software.com/pythonista/. - Source: Hacker News / about 1 year ago

• Remote development on a mobile device

  Haven't tried it, but there's Pythonista. You can also use a remote terminal like blink shell and ssh into a tmux session. I also haven't tried this, either. Source: almost 2 years ago

• How to code, build, and deploy from an iPad using Gitlab and Gitpod

  There's Pythonista - works pretty well, and you can import modules. I use it for messing around with MQTT. http://omz-software.com/pythonista/. - Source: Hacker News / about 2 years ago

• Which Shortcuts companion apps are actually still maintained and working?

  I'd like to add Pythonista to the watch list - has not been updated in more than a year, but mentioned Shortcuts in its latest release notes. Source: over 2 years ago

• Ask HN: Best framework to build a GUI app in Python for windows and macOS?

  I think the best one right now for python is "beeware": https://beeware.org/ You also have Kivy which is prety good: https://kivy.org/. - Source: Hacker News / 5 months ago

• Tkinter Designer: Quickly Turn Figma Design to Python Tkinter GUI

  Neat! I can see this being a useful way to build quick demos from a Figma design. If I follow correctly, it's building the whole UI from images from the Figma file, so isn't using any native OS styling. Thats fine for demos and some simple apps. It would interesting if it was possible to combine this with BeeWhare [0] for mobile UIs, none native style much more forgiving on mobile. 0: https://beeware.org. - Source: Hacker News / 10 months ago

• Python GUIs

  A interesting option I haven’t seen mentioned here is Beeware, which describes the project with this summary: “Write your apps in Python and release them on iOS, Android, Windows, MacOS, Linux, Web, and tvOS using rich, native user interfaces. Multiple apps, one codebase, with a fully native user experience on every platform.” Source: . - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago

• Is there a way to use turn a project into a single executable file that doesn't require anyone to do anything like install Python before using it?

  There's one other option though: BeeWare, a project supported by Anaconda. I've not used it yet, but it looks promising and the docs are solid. It claims to support shipping your app as a binary for Linux, Mac, Windows, and Android. Source: about 1 year ago

• How to compile c source code for iOS?

  On iOS you can never access a path outside of your sandbox unless the user explicitly permits it, like in conjunction with the Files app. What you will likely have to do is build the framework for iOS and bundle it inside your app. We do that with Python, for example, via BeeWare.
