@app.ui
def create_ui():
    return Div(
        children=[
            H1("Hello, PyTuri!"),
            Button("Click Me", onclick=handle_click),
        ],

@app.command()
def handle_click():
    return {"message": "Button clicked!"}

if __name__ == "__main__":
    app.run()

Use with Data Science Libraries

PyTuri works seamlessly with numpy, pandas, and other C extension libraries:

from pyturi import App
import numpy as np
import pandas as pd

app = App(name="Data App")

@app.command()
def process_data(values: list):
    arr = np.array(values)
    df = pd.DataFrame({"values": arr})
    return df.describe().to_dict()

app.run()
