I spend 95% of my work time doing backend python microservices for internal tools, 5% on terraform for the infrastructure, and 0.0001% of my time building frontends for these tools (I just use plain html and JS, and only add a frontend when absolutely necessary). I've build a react app for fun in the past just to learn how that works but if I had to do it again for work I would basically have to go through the entire learning process again.

So, something like this where I'm writing pure python for my web components could really save me a lot of that churn time, not to mention that many of my coworkers have absolutely no JS experience. I have an upcoming task to build a new frontend and am going to add in a couple days to try this out to see if it meets our needs.
