I'm still waiting for a truly cross-platform framework using Python that builds natively and beautifully on ANY platform - from the Apple IIGS to MacOS M4 to web to Windows to Linux. With a click of a button. So I wasn't pleased to read how limited this framework is. Still waiting, I guess?

There are some things available, and people are working on it. Coincidentally, one of those people is Russell Keith-Magee of Django fame, who founded the BeeWare project.

I’m not sure that happens in any language, but my sense is that it probably will not happen in Python.

Looks interesting! I will take a look. I think Zig and Zap look pretty cool too.

Seems like compiling to and deploying to Apple 2 is still a stretch
