why should I prefer Pynecone over NiceGUI?
- NiceGUI was initially build for accessing and controlling hardware as shown in our webcam demo); I'm not sure how it would be done with Pynecone
- NiceGUI encourages the use of standard Python (callbacks, if-statements,..), Pynecone on the other hand uses explicit State classes and provides constructs like pc.cond and pc.foreach.
- NiceGUI uses Vue/Quasar for the frontend while Pynecone is build on NextJS
- NiceGUI generates HTML/JS/CSS via templates on the fly while Pynceone has an explicit compile step; so NiceGUI can be run with normal "Python" instead of using a command like "pc"
- while both frameworks use FastAPI for the backend, in NiceGUI you can actually use your own App and simply extend it with NiceGUI to provide additional UI; Pynecone hides FastAPI which makes it harder to provide other API endpoints (for example to serve images from memory instead of files).
