I'm building a voice assistant using python. I want to make it available as a web application. How do I build the same?
Thanks
Flask is a good framework and you can combine with Google App Engine to deploy it:
https://cloud.google.com/appengine/docs/python/
You can also run Python web hosting if you're looking for the absolute easiest way to do it: https://www.pythonanywhere.com/

I am trying build an application that can run offline and online too. If the application is offline it must run with minimum functionality and if it get an internet it automatically push data online Any references or tutorials would be appreciated.
any references that can help me to achieve this.
Yes, surely that's possible and you already mentioned the tools: node.js and electron are suitable. Most electron apps do that (whatsapp and joplin directly come to my mind).
You can look in the source of those already available apps, but it might be difficult. I would start with the tutorial of electron and search for the features as "check internet connectivity" (i.e. here on stackoverflow)
Your question is a bit to broadly stated to help in detail.
Yes, surely that's possible. you can use the node.js and electronJs with Angular are suitable.
For Angular and NodeJs refer the below document:
Build a Basic CRUD App with Angular and Node
For ElectronJs refer the below demo project:
Electron Samples
Best luck !!
I have a React App and a Express API. I want to package those two components into one single executable. Is there a way to do this? I don’t want a solution to my problem I want a hint into the right direction if this is possible.
I believe what you mean is not to keep the bundler running as well as the express server, unfortunately that's not possible if you're in developer mode (and) you're expecting realtime updates in your browser, but if you were in production, then it's not even the case that you need to run your bundler, cause your main.bundle.js is already built and ready.
I think this is what you are looking for. https://electronjs.org/
Electron or similar libraries help you to create an executable application which can be installed an run like a desktop application.
The only point you have to keep in mind is for accessing the database you will have to create a REST API and communicate via that.
Link for a simple tutorial.
I've been researching for long time but haven't found what I need. Maybe here someone can help me out.
What I want:
I'm trying to create an application that will run inside electron. Both frontend and backend should be encapsulated within a single executable, so I was thinking React js and Nodejs would be a good option.
But it's not as simple as I thought. Found a good boilerplace for reactjs https://github.com/electron-react-boilerplate/electron-react-boilerplate but I have no idea how I could encapsulate nodejs as a backend to it.
It'd also somehow would need to be integrated with the release package and so on...
Additionally I'd need to have a webserver that will run on localhost:[port] when you launch the application.
Technical Summary:
So basically:
Electron with React js - as the application 'face'
Nodejs - as the backend of the application
Webserver running locally - (using react js).
In the application, I would put link to the pages that is served by that locally running reactjs web app.
Hope I was clear. And I really hope someone can help me out.
Thanks!!!
as you know the serverside part is separate from front end.you can lunch react electron together like this article https://flaviocopes.com/react-electron/ .but serverside must start to stand alone . you could use pm2 for launching them.http://pm2.keymetrics.io/
lets talk about electron. what is electron?
according to electronjs.org :
Electron is an open source library developed by GitHub for building
cross-platform desktop applications with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Electron accomplishes this by combining Chromium and Node.js into a
single runtime and apps can be packaged for Mac, Windows, and Linux.
so the electron is a tool for creating desktop applications.it uses chromium engine for accessing resources of the operating system level. but the intention of that is creating apps not a serverside job.
if you have some needs and logics that must handle in a server you should be considering that. otherwise, read about serverless applications.
I wrote an angularJS app (with nodeJS and ExpressJS as my server). My app is totally independent from the server (I used pouchDB for the data). I would like to create an app/package that can be run from a computer or tablet. How can I do that?
I'm sure there are already lot of questions/answers about this topic but I couldn't find the right solution so I apologize in advance!
Thanks
If you r looking for an full-stack framework, i can really recommend Ionic.
It is a framework, that contains it's own customizable ui-framework(build on sass bootstrap), it is build on cordova aka phonegap and makes it easy to deploy and test the code on android, ios, ... . It is also optimized for angularjs and offers for most functions a directive.
I really love it. I did write a blogpost in german: kkonstantin/ionic
Maybe take your existing frontend javascript code and make use of a css framework, to make it look great for all window sizes.
Like: Ratchet (build on bootstrap)
Then you just make use of Phonegap to deploy your html/css/javascript code to the plattforms.
I built a few nodeJS webapps earlier this year, but nodeJS development has been so fast that I feel like I'm already out of date. Any good nodeJS repos out there that do a great job building a RESTful api? (in terms of code organization, style, usage of npm modules, etc?)
Thanks so much for any help!
You should give Express a try, it's a web framework like Sinatra. There are a lof of example on using it on the github repo: https://github.com/visionmedia/express/tree/master/examples
Here's a nice article with code sample: http://fabianosoriani.wordpress.com/2011/08/15/express-api-on-node-js-with-mysql-auth/
I am using express on a webapp and are really satisfied with the request mapping for urls and static content. It also can create basic project structure for a quick start.
https://github.com/visionmedia/express
If your goal is a fast API development: https://github.com/kilianc/node-apiserver
Why don't you try node-restify? It's inspired by express and is aimed at creating RESTFull api's :)
