Web

The app you wrote for the desktop runs in a browser from the same source. While you develop, python -m nuiitivet.web run app.py serves it from its source tree and opens a browser. For users, python -m nuiitivet.web build writes a site, and a file server or python -m nuiitivet.web serve delivers it. Between the two, the browser asks for one change to the code: the work that ran on a thread becomes a worker function, or a server function when it needs a server.

• Running During Development: Serve the app from its source tree and see an edit.
• What Differs from the Desktop: The threads that must become worker or server functions, the window features that are ignored, the first load and the fonts.
• Worker and Server Functions: Mark the work with @nv.worker, report progress and cancel from the screen, move the work that needs a server to @nv.server, and keep a module off the browser.
• Building and Deploying: Build the site, and deploy it alone or with the server.
