How Does Reflex Work?

This slide is bullet points froma Reflex blog describing its architecture.

• App is written entirely in Python using the Reflex classes
• Front end is compiled to React
• A FastAPI app is created for the backend
• WebSockets are used to send events from the front end to backend, and state updates from back end to front end
• All application logic and state management is done in Python on the back end
• Only the UI uses React
