## What it is
Remi is a lightweight Python GUI library (under 100 KB) that renders interfaces in web browsers by translating Python code into HTML automatically. It starts a built-in web server so the UI is accessible both locally and remotely, with no HTML knowledge required.

## Use cases
- build a python gui without learning html
- access my app's interface remotely from a browser
- create a cross-platform desktop ui in pure python
- make a simple web dashboard from python code
- prototype a gui quickly with a drag and drop editor
- serve a python ui on my local network

## When to choose
- you want a browser-rendered GUI written entirely in Python
- you need remote access to your app's interface over the network
- you want a tiny dependency-free GUI library
- you prefer widget-based UIs over writing HTML/CSS

## When to avoid
- you need a polished, modern single-page web app with rich client-side interactivity
- you require native desktop look-and-feel or OS-native widgets
- you need high-performance rendering like games or heavy animations
- you want a full-featured web framework with routing, auth, and databases
