Let's build a BeeWare app that uses Django
summary
Claims that a Django backend can be packaged into a native Python UI and deployed to desktops and phones using Briefcase and Toga are demonstrated end to end: a simple app with a web view loads the Django tutorial site, prints form input to the terminal, and runs in the iOS simulator. A Cookiecutter-style positron template scaffolds a Django + BeeWare project, migrations and path tweaks are required, and the live demo mostly succeeds.
