run nicegui (server) on smartphone

[bojh]

Working on a network utility, an idea was coming in my mind: What would be the impact to bring/run the nicegui application directly as an App to a smartphone (android/iOS). Means the app contains the nicegui server, and will directly open an browser (wo decoration) as App screen - similiar to the "native" mode?

Just recently I've been working on a project which I'd love to run on the phone without external server. But I couldn't find a feasible way to run a mobile Python server.

sonos: yes, understand immediately. :-)
may i should play around with py2app. there seems a way for MacOS, Maybe this works also for iPad's .... iOS?
Does not have some experience yet ...

[falkoschindler]

Sure. But it probably won't work on iOS:

Py2app is a project that targets macOS and does not work on other platforms, such as iOS, Linux or Windows.

I'm not sure about Android though.

Oh yes - THX
