Pglet – Web UI framework for back end developers

I tried it on a hello world example and was surprised to see that when I run `python test.py` it opens the app at a https://console.pglet.io URL -- it seems to copy my code into the cloud when I run it.

You need to run a local server via the pglet binary, and add local=True to pglet.app

That's an odd default to send it to the Internet...

And a disturbing trend that it is becoming so common as to be normalized.

Soon people are going to be asking "you don't have anything to hide, do you" when you want to run and debug locally.

For me it means that project is just a toy. Maybe an amazing one, but still.

In most of my positions in the past pushing random company data outside is a serious nono. I have enforced and agreed on that myself. So me using recklessly such a project naively thinking it will act politely means I might not have a job any more.

So - maybe I would play with it at home, but if I won't ever use it at a job (AGPL also adds to it), why bother?
