Overview of this book

This book is a comprehensive guide to the Streamlit open-source Python library and simplifying the process of creating web applications. Through hands-on guidance and realistic examples, you’ll progress from crafting simple to sophisticated web applications from scratch. This book covers everything from understanding Streamlit's central principles, modules, basic features, and widgets to advanced skills such as dealing with databases, hashes, sessions, and multipages. Starting with fundamental concepts like operation systems virtualization, IDEs, development environments, widgets, scripting, and the anatomy of web apps, the initial chapters set the groundwork. You’ll then apply this knowledge to develop some real web apps, gradually advancing to more complex apps, incorporating features like natural language processing (NLP), computer vision, dashboards with interactive charts, file uploading, and much more. The book concludes by delving into the implementation of advanced skills and deployment techniques. By the end of this book, you’ll have transformed into a proficient developer, equipped with advanced skills for handling databases, implementing secure login processes, managing session states, creating multipage applications, and seamlessly deploying them on the cloud.

Configuring our environment

We are finally here and building our first web application from scratch! From scratch means working from the beginning, even before an empty Python file. The approach is easy – we start by sitting and coding together. Let’s start by creating our virtual environment, which is dedicated exclusively to this new app we will develop:

  1. As we’ve already learned in previous chapters, we must fire up our Terminator terminal and create an empty directory named web_app1 with the following instructions:
    mkdir web_app1
  2. Then, we must enter the following instruction in the terminal:
    cd web_app1
  3. Finally, we must write the following:
    pipenv shell

The last instruction, as we saw previously and already know, will create the virtual environment with pipenv, as shown in Figure 4.1:

Since it will help us a lot in managing code and Streamlit’s execution...
