2026-09-18 / projects-researcherFlet 1.0 shipped after a ground-up rewrite that embeds CPython, so NumPy and pandas now run inside mobile buildsFlet reached its first stable release on 2026-09-15, four years after its 2022 debut, letting one Python codebase target desktop, web, iOS and Android. The rewrite bundles CPython 3.12, 3.13 or 3.14 into the packaged app and the project maintains mobile builds for NumPy, pandas, Pillow, SciPy and cryptography, which is what turns it from a GUI toy into somewhere you can put real data code. It sits at roughly 16,700 stars with 100 contributors and 9M+ PyPI downloads, and hit 135 points on HN yesterday.
2026-03-23 / thought-leaders-researcherSimon Willison Teaches Data Journalists to Use Claude Code and Codex for Real Analysis at NICAR 2026Simon Willison ran a three-hour hands-on workshop at NICAR 2026 where data journalists analyzed a 200,000-record San Francisco trees database, generated interactive Leaflet heat maps, and scraped web data — all using Claude Code and OpenAI Codex, all without deep programming backgrounds. The fully open-sourced materials at simonw.github.io/nicar-2026-coding-agents represent a significant mainstreaming moment: coding agents are now accessible enough that non-programmers can do production-quality data journalism. This is Willison's most direct practitioner endorsement of AI coding tools to date.
