---

Flet is a framework that allows building mobile, desktop and web applications
in Python only without prior experience in frontend development.

###    Single code base for any device

Your app will equally look great on iOS, Android, Windows, Linux, macOS and web.

###    Build an entire app in Python

Build a cross-platform app without knowledge of Dart, Swift, Kotlin, HTML or JavaScript - only Python!

###    150+ built-in controls and services

Beautiful UI widgets with Material and Cupertino design: layout, navigation, dialogs, charts - Flet uses Flutter to render UI.

###    50+ Python packages for iOS and Android

Numpy, pandas, pydantic, cryptography, opencv, pillow and other popular libraries.

###    Full web support

Flet apps run natively in modern browsers using WebAssembly and Pyodide, with no server required. Prefer server-side? Deploy as a Python web app with real-time UI updates.

###    Built-in packaging

Build standalone executables or bundles for iOS, Android, Windows, Linux, macOS and web. Instantly deploy to App Store and Google Play.

###    Test on iOS and Android

Test your project on your own mobile device with Flet App. See your app updates as you make changes.

###    Extensible

Easily wrap any of thousands of Flutter packages to use with Flet or build new controls in pure Python using built-in UI primitives.

###    Accessible

Flet is built with Flutter which has solid accessibility foundations on Android, iOS, web, and desktop.

## Flet app example

Below is a simple "Counter" app, with a text field and two buttons to increment and decrement the counter value:

```python title="counter.py"
import flet as ft

def main(page: ft.Page):
page.title = "Flet counter example"
page.vertical_alignment = ft.MainAxisAlignment.CENTER

input = ft.TextField(value="0", text_align=ft.TextAlign.RIGHT, width=100)

def minus_click(e):
input.value = str(int(input.value) - 1)

def plus_click(e):
input.value = str(int(input.value) + 1)

page.add(
ft.Row(
alignment=ft.MainAxisAlignment.CENTER,
controls=[
ft.IconButton(ft.Icons.REMOVE, on_click=minus_click),
input,
ft.IconButton(ft.Icons.ADD, on_click=plus_click),
],
)
)

ft.run(main)
```

To run the app, install `flet`:

```bash
pip install 'flet[all]'
```

then launch the app:

```bash
flet run counter.py
```

This will open the app in a native OS window - what a nice alternative to Electron! 🙂



To run the same app as a web app use `--web` option with `flet run` command:

```bash
flet run --web counter.py
```
