Welcome to the course Learn Streamlit for Data Science
Streamlit is an open-source Python library that makes it easy to create and share beautiful, custom web apps for machine learning and data science that can be used to share analytics results, build complex interactive experiences, and illustrate new machine learning models. In just a few minutes you can build and deploy powerful data apps.
On top of that, developing and deploying Streamlit apps is incredibly fast and flexible, often turning application development time from days into hours.
In this course, we start out with the Streamlit basics. We will learn how to download and run demo Streamlit apps, how to edit demo apps using our own text editor, how to organize our Streamlit apps, and finally, how to make our very own. Then, we will explore the basics of data visualization in Streamlit. We will learn how to accept some initial user input, and then add some finishing touches to our own apps with text. At the end of this course, you should be comfortable starting to make your own Streamlit applications.
In particular, we will cover the following topics:
Goals
- Students will learn about the benefits of using Streamlit for developing data science web applications and be able to explain why it is a useful tool for this purpose.
- Students will be able to install Streamlit and set up a development environment for creating Streamlit applications.
- Students will learn about the different ways to organize Streamlit applications and be able to choose an appropriate structure for their project.
- Students will be able to use Streamlit's text elements to create informative and engaging content for their data science web applications.
- Students will learn how to display data using Streamlit and be able to create tables and other visualizations to convey important information.
- Students will learn about Streamlit's layout options and be able to structure their application's content in a clear and easy-to-follow manner.
- Students will learn how to use Streamlit's widgets to enable user interaction with their data science web applications and be able to incorporate a variety of widgets into their projects.
- Students will learn about different data visualization tools, such as Plotly and Bokeh, and be able to integrate them with their Streamlit applications to create more advanced visualizations.
- Students will be able to create a complete data science project using Streamlit and other relevant tools and techniques.
- Students will learn how to deploy their data science web applications to the cloud using services such as Heroku or AWS, and be able to share their applications with others.
