I just submitted a tutorial to PYCON 🐍 US 🗽2025. You can learn from the creator (me) how to write a Python browser app using PyScript's Reactive LTK (
pyscript.github.io/ltk/?tab=3
). This includes UI, events, CSS styling, and third-party calls to OpenAI to create content. Pittsburgh, here I come! ✈️
