UV and the Environment

  • We can use uv to create a new Python project with uv init.
  • We can add dependencies to our project with uv add {package-name}.
  • uv automatically creates and manages a virtual environment for our project, aiding with reproducibility and avoiding conflicts between projects.

Introduction to Streamlit

  • We can run a Streamlit app with uv run streamlit run {script-name}.py.
  • Streamlit automatically detects changes to our code and updates the app in real time.
  • We can write text to our app using st.write and st.markdown.
  • st.write can take in a wide variety of data types and will intelligently display them.
  • Streamlit has a variety of built-in widgets that we can use to add interactivity to our app.

Getting Data from an API

  • APIs allow us to get data from web services and incorporate it into our applications.
  • We can use the requests library to make HTTP requests to APIs and get data back in JSON format.
  • Streamlit widgets can be used to get user input and use that input to make API requests, allowing us to create interactive applications that incorporate live data.
