Introducing Flython, a way to use Python in Flutter

It’s actually been quite some time since I’ve made a shift to using Python and in general languages and tools that offer a shorter way to test out ideas. But recently I’ve started doing that in a more structured and hopefully sustainable way, that not only is good for extremely fast prototyping, but also for building stable and trustworthy software applications that might (must?) run for a long time. So, to let you in on the trick, in this post, I am going to introduce you to Flython, a library that will help you create applications that use the best of the two worlds of Flutter (Dart) and Python.

Computer Vision Docker Image with TensorFlow and OpenCV

It’s almost inevitable to use Docker images these days especially if you want to have a consistent development environment and configuration. They make life extremely easy by guaranteeing that your application (in this case, Computer Vision application) will always behave the same way as it did when you developed it. How? By using Containerization. If you’re not familiar with the topic then I suggest first doing some research and reading on “Containerization vs Virtualization” and how to use Docker. Then come back to this tutorial to learn how to create a Computer Vision Docker Image that you can use to develop and play around with TensorFlow and OpenCV for Object Detection.
