Preswald

What is Preswald?

Preswald is a powerful open-source framework designed to transform Python scripts into fully interactive, shareable data applications and dashboards. It provides pre-built UI components such as tables, charts, buttons, and forms, enabling users to build complex data visualizations and internal tools without writing any frontend code. Its core architecture uses a Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG) execution model to manage dependencies and state, ensuring efficient and predictable updates only when inputs change. Preswald supports local development and one-command deployment to the cloud, allowing instant sharing via URLs. It is widely adopted by data scientists, analysts, and product teams for prototyping, productionizing notebooks, and building scalable, high-performance data apps.
