How to Embed a Python Interpreter in an iOS App

Discover how to embed a Python 3.10 interpreter in a native iOS app during this 45-minute conference talk presented by Łukasz Langa at EuroPython 2022. Learn the process of integrating Python into a Swift mobile app, including embedding Python from source, building it into the app using Xcode, and adding pre-compiled third-party libraries like numpy and Pillow. Explore the advantages of native mobile applications and how Python can enhance their functionality. Witness a live demonstration of running the resulting app on an iPhone 13 and modifying app behavior at runtime using Python. While Swift knowledge is not required for the talk, it will be necessary for practical implementation. Gain insights into creating powerful, customizable iOS apps that leverage the strengths of both Swift and Python.
