Hi Daniel,

not to mention the hoops you (without Lianja) have to jump through to get your app into a PhoneGap or Electron App. In Lianja, you fill in a few attributes and you're done, for each of them.

And, of course, you can program in Python to your heart's content.

There's still a learning curve associated with creating responsive UI apps, but at least it's only learning how to use all the parts that are supplied, as contrasted with wrangling directly with bootstrap or angular etc. And even the UI stuff is getting easier, as our needs are known, and Barry adds UI stuff in that makes our lives easier.

Herb Mischel has done some really neat stuff using a Python graphics library to cut pieces out of an image, adjust the image properties, and then paste it back in. It's all part of a package that he's porting to Lianja. Here's a link to a Youtube he created: https://youtu.be/1kpa-3Wg2Ro

Onward,

Hank
