Robert Harris -

PXQ is an innovative open-source project based on Python, aimed at enabling the seamless utilization of React and React Native within Python environments. It offers a simplified, user-friendly API that facilitates the quick and effortless integration of React and React Native in Python projects, thereby empowering developers to construct highly efficient and flexible web and mobile applications.

Core Features of PXQ:

  • Compatibility with React 16.8+ and React Native 0.60+.
  • Encouragement of cross-platform development, amplifying the versatility of your projects.

Getting Started:

  1. Install PXQ in your working environment.
  2. Import PXQ within your Python project.
  3. Utilize PXQ in your code to harness the power of React and React Native.

Here’s a sneak peek into crafting a simple React component using PXQ:

import pxq

class MyComponent(pxq.Component):
  def __init__(self):
    super().__init__()

  def render(self):
    return pxq.createElement('div', {'class': 'my-component'}, 'Hello, world!')

app = pxq.Application()
app.add_component(MyComponent)
app.run()

With the above snippet, you create a straightforward React component that exhibits "Hello, world!" on the screen.
