Re: Show HN: I built a Python web framework

What is missing from the web framework space is a headless ui components merged with a db layer. Most of these frameworks repeat old patterns. Nothing has been able to break through and give us something truly revolutionary like Rails did. Web frameworks need to be a visual medium where you can create ui using visual tools and the "backend" side of things merge seamlessly.

What do you mean by headless UI components?

What do you mean by headless UI components?

Basically the ui layer and the backend layer which and the operational layer need to be combined into one seamless tool. Right now you have the write a "frontend" and a "db connection + backend logic layer".

And by headless I mean something which builds on what the web provides like buttons but adds a whole lot more of components which are used but are unstyled.

Then you've invented Visual Basic in the 90s, WordPress in the 00s and I don't know Squarespace or something in the last decade. For business cases beyond that, this is simply not how "the backend" works.
