AI video is getting pretty good - should we make Reflex the movie? ...

We're excited to show you something pretty cool with Reflex's new mapping components. Building interactive maps in Python web apps used to mean wrestling with JavaScript libraries or settling for static images. Not anymore. With Reflex Enterprise, you get full-featured maps built on Leaflet; markers, layers, event handling, the works. All in pure Python. What makes this powerful: - No JavaScript required - everything stays in your Python workflow - Real-time interactions - click handlers, zoom events, location tracking - Programmatic control - fly to locations, fit bounds, add/remove layers dynamically - Mobile-friendly out of the box Perfect for dashboards, analytics apps, or any project where you need to visualize location data without the usual frontend complexity. Docs → lnkd.in/evzNDneZ Reflex → lnkd.in/ehzKkM4A What are you building with mapping features in your Python apps? We'd love to hear about your projects!

Frontend… CSS… JavaScript. These 3 words are enough to make a backend dev sweat. But with Reflex, Python devs can now build beautiful UIs without writing a single line of frontend code. Here’s how it works.

Most backend devs don’t fear logic or data. What slows them down is, — Spaghetti JavaScript — Cascading CSS nightmares — Pixel-perfect frontend work They didn’t sign up to be designers, they just want their data in a UI.

Full-stack apps can slow down backend devs for real. When prototyping something like: — Marketing dashboard — AI model tester — Customer feedback tool You must work with languages/tools you don’t use often. Here's how Reflex changes all that.

With Reflex, you can build a working version in an afternoon, all just with a single command, a single mindset, and a single stack. It is made for: — Backend devs with ideas — Data engineers building tools — AI teams creating quick UIs for models If you’ve ever wanted to prototype without touching JS/React, Reflex is for you.

Demos can be time-consuming in so many ways. Let’s say you need a dashboard showing: — Real-time metrics — Filterable logs — Editable tables Usually, you’d spend days wiring frontend components, and that’s a real pain in the neck:🧵

But with Reflex, you can build it in Python and deploy it in minutes. Reflex is built for: — Data scientists who hate HTML — AI engineers who want dashboards — Backend devs who want to ship, not struggle If you're writing Python, you can now write apps.

Python developers tend to be backend-focused. They excel at: — Writing logic — Working with data — Building APIs But when it comes to frontend work, many avoid it altogether. This is where Reflex comes in handy:

WITHOUT Reflex, you must: Learn React → Set up Tailwind → Configure frontend-backend communication WITH Reflex, it’s just Python all the way. One file, one flow, one language.

I used to think context switching was just part of the job. Write backend logic in Python. Flip to React for the frontend. Bounce between mental models, tools, errors. It feels normal—until it burns you out. Here’s what I’ve learned.👇

As a Python dev, you build fast. APIs, business logic, data pipelines—all in flow. Then it’s time to build the UI. Suddenly you’re tweaking state in React, chasing type mismatches, reading 12 Stack Overflow tabs to fix a styling bug. The mental gearshift is brutal.

Reflex 0.7.11 is here! github.com/reflex-dev/reflex… In this release: - deprecated rx.next.video - further compile-checks for hydration errors when using rx.el namespace - add rx.config option to disable autosetters: state_auto_setters=False - use javascript over jsx as output compilation target - bump rx.icon react dependency - remove rx.cond as a memoization leaf - some minor performance optimization

We recently added an Image-to-App feature to Reflex. It lets you turn any website into a working app, written entirely in Python. This demo replicates the basic Claude app in Reflex with a few prompts (fully connected to the @AnthropicAI Python library): 🔗 claude-clone.reflex.run From here you can fork the app here and tweak it with our AI builder: build.reflex.dev/gen/13e2e1a… Many of our best looking generations are using this image feature, so we're exploring more ways to leverage this in the future (like feeding the agent screenshots of its current app).

A quick teaser of our new AI App Builder. Built a Finance app to analyze the S&P 500 in one prompt. In Alpha and you can try it out now, just drop us a message to get the code!
