HI.

So: I have a background in Python and Generative AI. I am looking to start and provide freelancing services and solutions by building end-to-end Generative AI Products and Apps (RAG Based or Agentic AI based solutions). So will you recommend Streamlit for that? or I have to shift to a more standard UI framework?

The thing is I am very comfortable in python and have prior experience in building stuff using Python and Streamlit but as easy as it is, it really does NOT provide scalable options and it is NOT feasible for production grade stuff (I might be wrong about it)

So what will you suggest? Do I really have to learn JS based frameworks? or is there any easy/open source way to that will take care of the UI portion (in a scalable manner), so that I mainly have to focus on backend sutff? Or streamlit really can deal with production grade and scalable stuff?

It really depends on the type of applications you are going to create. Many businesses are already using Streamlit to rapidly create internal tools and dashboards. If the code is well optimized, the Streamlit app will run smoothly in a production environment. You can read the viewpoints of other developers building business apps in the link provided at the end.

If your goal is to create consumer-facing apps, then a better user experience and user interface will be preferred. In that case, JavaScript-based frameworks will be a better option to achieve full flexibility. However, it will add additional costs, deployment, and maintenance overhead.
