Compared to other Python libraries for creating web apps, such as Flask and Django, Streamlit focuses on providing an intuitive interface for creating interactive visualizations and dashboards in a very simple and fast way. Flask and Django are more general-purpose web frameworks that can be used for a wider range of web applications, but they require more coding effort to set up and customize. Streamlit is designed to be used primarily for prototyping and creating small to medium-sized web apps and makes it possible to speed up the development process, enabling programmers to share their results with others in a user-friendly and engaging way.
