# NiceGUI

NiceGUI is an easy-to-use, Python-based UI framework, which shows up in your web browser.
You can create buttons, dialogs, Markdown, 3D scenes, plots and much more.

It is great for micro web apps, dashboards, robotics projects, smart home solutions and similar use cases.
You can also use it in development, for example when tweaking/configuring a machine learning algorithm or tuning motor controllers.

NiceGUI is available as [PyPI package](https://pypi.org/project/nicegui/), [Docker image](https://hub.docker.com/r/zauberzeug/nicegui) and on [conda-forge](https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/nicegui) as well as [GitHub](https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui).

## Installation

```bash
python3 -m pip install nicegui
```

## Usage

Write your nice GUI in a file `main.py`:

```python
from nicegui import ui

ui.label('Hello NiceGUI!')
ui.button('BUTTON', on_click=lambda: ui.notify('button was pressed'))

ui.run()
```

Launch it with:

```bash
python3 main.py
```

The GUI is now available through http://localhost:8080/ in your browser.
Note: NiceGUI will automatically reload the page when you modify the code.

## Documentation and Examples

The documentation is hosted at [https://nicegui.io/documentation](https://nicegui.io/documentation) and provides plenty of live demos.
The whole content of [https://nicegui.io](https://nicegui.io) is [implemented with NiceGUI itself](https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/blob/main/main.py)
and can be started locally with `docker run -p 8080:8080 zauberzeug/nicegui` or by executing `main.py` from this repository.

You may also have a look at our [in-depth examples](https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/tree/main/examples) of what you can do with NiceGUI.
In our wiki we have a list of great [NiceGUI projects from the community](https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/wiki#community-projects), a section with [Tutorials](https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/wiki#tutorials), a growing list of [FAQs](https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/wiki/FAQs) and [some strategies for using ChatGPT / LLMs to get help about NiceGUI](https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/wiki#chatgpt).

## Why?

We at [Zauberzeug](https://zauberzeug.com) like [Streamlit](https://streamlit.io/)
but find it does [too much magic](https://github.com/zauberzeug/nicegui/issues/1#issuecomment-847413651) when it comes to state handling.
In search for an alternative nice library to write simple graphical user interfaces in Python we discovered [JustPy](https://justpy.io/).
Although we liked the approach, it is too "low-level HTML" for our daily usage.
But it inspired us to use [Vue](https://vuejs.org/) and [Quasar](https://quasar.dev/) for the frontend.

We have built on top of [FastAPI](https://fastapi.tiangolo.com/),
which itself is based on the ASGI framework [Starlette](https://www.starlette.io/)
and the ASGI webserver [Uvicorn](https://www.uvicorn.org/)
because of their great performance and ease of use.

## Architecture

NiceGUI is a Python framework for building web UIs with a **backend-first philosophy**.
Key architectural decisions:

- **Backend-first**: All UI logic lives in Python; the framework handles web details
- **Tech stack**: Python/FastAPI backend, Vue/Quasar frontend, socket.io for communication
- **Single worker**: Uses one uvicorn worker (thanks to full async support, no multi-process synchronization needed)
- **Real-time communication**: WebSocket connection is established after initial page load, kept open for client-server communication
- **User interactions**: All UI events are sent to backend and invoke Python functions, which can then generate UI updates
- **Outbox**: Accumulates UI updates and sends them in batches to the client
