Description

Like many other people, I want to write good-looking apps with React-style (Model-View-Update, The Elm Architecture) in 100% Python.

Congratulations on implementing Hooks in Python; I believe you’re the first person to do that.

Once a common library for rendering/reconciliation exists, the same procedure can be repeated for Qt

It sure would be nice if we could write PySide6 apps with Reacton. Here’s an issue for talking about that.

Research direction

Start by reading the Reacton Hooks API and the linked discussion and article to understand the existing model and reconciliation approach. Then review the Qt for Python reference and determine the design needed for Reacton to support PySide6 apps; done means a defined, working Qt integration rather than only a discussion.
