Installing windows only python packages streamlit cloud

I realize today that python packages that are Windows only, cannot be run on streamlit cloud. Package in question is MetaTrader5. I am a bit sad about this as I have been excited to build/see my web app developing thus far

Is this something that will eventually be supported or should I figure out a way to deploy the app elsewhere? What would be the other next easiest way(environment) to deploy my app streamlit app ?

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated

Thanks!

I don’t think there will ever be a windows runtime for streamlit cloud.

Metatrader itself offers VPS hosting, I would check it out!?

Hi @FX_BABA,

As an alternative, you could consider other deployment platforms that support Windows environments, such as Microsoft Azure App Service.

Best wishes,
