This does not seem like a flet issue at all

[wanghaisheng]

you can say that.if I want to user flet as main framework to develop multi platform app, I think many have the same issue,how to manage user for example, so it came to this question

As mentioned earlier, its not a Flet issue, but you can use fastapi within Flet to retrieve data for display within the application. You will have a function within a Flet page that calls the api using Python requests library against a fastapi endpoint. You would then use the data (JSON for example) returned from the endpoint to display within Flet i.e., a DataTable for example.

this is very confused.
how could this be?
does not desktop app need database any chance?
if it is true, would there be any doc about how to connect database or mature and popular backend service framework?

Almost all APIs use databases. For example: u can use SQLite3. There are a lot of videos on youtube about this. Just try to search it before opening issue 😃

I did not see any flet doc around integrations with database

[FeodorFitsner]

Flet program is just a Python program - you can use any library for working with database, such as SQLAlchemy.

I definitely know that, all i want is a clear documentation about this topic unless you guys think this is totally useless

[DmitryYalchik]

Programming is like constructor 🏗️
Just find some video-/text tutorial about how include database in ur python project and follow steps in ur flet project.

U can do new tutorial about this. It's can to help u to learn new tech better 😃
