๐Ÿค– Android support is here!

With Flet Android app you can see how your Flet Python app looks and behaves on Android devices while the app itself is running on your computer.

Similar to iOS, Flet for Android is a Flutter app written entirely in Python with the help of two open-source packages: serious_python and flet. Resulting app package is technically compliant with Google Play requirements, so you can publish awesome Android apps in pure Python.

Follow this guide to get started with testing your Flet apps on Android. Explore the app, browse gallery, play with sample projects and app settings.

๐ŸŽ‰ Whoo-hoo, Flet app is now on App Store! ๐ŸŽ‰

With Flet iOS app you can see how your Flet Python app looks and behaves on iPhone or iPad while the app itself is running on your computer.

But it's more than just testing Flet apps on the phone! Flet mobile app itself is written in Python and its publishing to App Store is an important milestone for the entire Flet project. It is a successful proof that you can create awesome mobile apps in Python only and package them so that they are accepted in App Store!

Follow this guide to get started with testing your Flet apps on iPhone or iPad. Explore the app, browse gallery, play with sample projects and app settings.

I would like to thank Kivy project for making a toolchain for iOS which we used to compile Python interpreter and dependencies for iOS devices. We published serious_python package for adding Python runtime to any Flutter app.

Unleash your inner artist ๐Ÿง‘โ€๐ŸŽจ and boost your Flet creativity with brand-new Canvas control just released in Flet 0.6.0!

Canvas enables you to draw arbitrary graphics using a set of primitives, or "shapes", such as line, circle, arc, path and text. I bet you can even implement your own version of charts using Canvas control!

Combine Canvas with GestureDetector and you get a free-hand drawing app - Flet Brush ๐Ÿ˜€!

Last year we introduced support for Matplotlib and Plotly charts. Both libraries are able to export charts as SVG images which are then displayed in a Flet app. However, such charts, while serving the purpose of visualization, are lacking interactivity and animation.

Today we are releasing Flet 0.5.2 with built-in charts ๐Ÿ“Š based on the awesome fl_chart library!
