Are you interested in deploying your Python project everywhere? This week on the show, Russell Keith-Magee, founder and maintainer of the BeeWare project, returns. Russell shares recent updates to Briefcase, a tool that converts a Python application into native installers on macOS, Windows, Linux, and mobile devices.
We cover how Anaconda hired him last year to work full-time on the BeeWare project. He shares how this has helped him focus his efforts and move the project forward. 
We also discuss his recent talk at DjangoCon US 2022 on how to turn your website into an app (and why maybe you shouldn&rsquo;t). Russell details the problems of converting from the Web to a mobile platform. We also contrast WebAssembly System Interface (WASI) with the tools that his team works on.
