StreamTeX

AI-powered content framework for Streamlit — create presentations, courses, and web-books with Claude or Cursor. No coding required.

StreamTeX combines a modular block architecture with AI-powered workflows. Describe your project in natural language, and let Claude or Cursor build it — or use the Python API for full control.

Getting Started

StreamTeX supports 4 installation levels. Pick the one that fits your needs.

Quick Start (minimal, no workspace)

From zero to a running project in 3 commands:

uv tool install "streamtex[cli]" -U
stx project new my-project
cd my-project && uv sync && uv run streamlit run book.py

Standard Setup (recommended)

Full workspace with rich templates, documentation, and Claude AI profiles:

uv tool install "streamtex[cli]" -U
mkdir streamtex-dev && cd streamtex-dev
stx workspace init .
stx workspace update
stx project new my-project --template project
cd projects/my-project
stx claude install project .
uv run streamlit run book.py

Prerequisites: Python 3.11+, git, uv.

Zero-Code with Claude or Cursor

Install StreamTeX and a Claude AI profile, then let the AI build your project:

uv tool install "streamtex[cli]" -U
mkdir streamtex-dev && cd streamtex-dev
stx workspace init . && stx workspace update
stx project new my-project
cd projects/my-project
stx claude install project .

Open in Claude Code or Cursor, then use slash commands:

/project:project-init
> "Create a Docker course with 12 slides, dark theme,
>  table of contents and page navigation"

The AI agent designs the project structure, proposes it for your approval, and generates all files — blocks, styles, book.py — ready to run:

uv run streamlit run book.py

See the AI Guide for all commands, agents, and workflows.

Code-First with Python

import streamlit as st
import streamtex as sx
from streamtex.styles.core import Style

st.set_page_config(page_title="My Book", layout="wide")

style = Style("color: navy; font-size: 1.2em;", "my-style")
sx.st_write(style, "Hello StreamTeX!")

uv run streamlit run app.py

Manual Installation (without stx CLI)

pip install streamtex
git clone https://github.com/nicolasguelfi/streamtex-claude.git
mkdir my-project && cd my-project
python ../streamtex-claude/install.py project .
uv run streamlit run book.py

Workspace Presets

The stx workspace init command supports 4 presets:

Preset	Repos	Use case
basic	none	Workspace only, upgrade later
user	streamtex-claude	+ Claude AI profiles
standard (default)	streamtex-docs + streamtex-claude	+ rich templates + local docs
developer	all 3 repos	+ library source + editable install

stx workspace init . --preset user       # Claude profiles only
stx workspace init .                     # standard (default)
stx workspace init . --preset developer  # full developer setup

Upgrade an existing workspace:

stx workspace upgrade developer
stx workspace update

Project Structure

A StreamTeX project follows this layout:

my-project/
├── .claude/                     # AI profiles (commands, skills, agents)
├── .streamlit/
│   └── config.toml              # enableStaticServing = true
├── blocks/
│   ├── __init__.py              # Block registry
│   └── bck_intro.py             # Your blocks (build() function each)
├── static/
│   └── images/                  # Static assets
├── custom/
│   └── styles.py                # Project-specific styles
└── book.py                      # Entry point with st_book()

Installation

# Install or upgrade the CLI as a global tool
uv tool install "streamtex[cli]" -U

# Or as a project dependency
uv add streamtex

Optional extras:

uv add "streamtex[inspector]"    # Live code inspector sidebar
uv add "streamtex[cli]"          # stx CLI commands

Prerequisites

• Python >= 3.11
• uv (recommended package manager)
• git

Project Configuration

StreamTeX projects using from streamtex import * require this ruff config in pyproject.toml (automatically generated by stx project new):

[tool.ruff.lint]
ignore = ["F403", "F405", "E701", "E741"]

If your project uses [tool.uv.sources] for editable installs, set UV_NO_SOURCES=1 in CI environments so uv resolves from PyPI instead of local paths.

Keeping Up to Date

Update the CLI

The stx CLI is installed as a global tool with its own frozen copy of the library. You must upgrade it explicitly after each release:

uv tool install "streamtex[cli]" -U

Update your workspace

cd streamtex-dev/
stx workspace update         # pulls repos, syncs deps, updates profiles

Fine-grained control:

stx workspace update --skip-sync      # skip uv sync
stx workspace update --skip-profiles  # skip Claude profile update

Update a standalone project (no workspace)

cd my-project/
uv add streamtex --upgrade   # update the library dependency

Use /stx-guide update inside Claude Code for guided assistance.
