Add widgets to sidebar
# Just add it after st.sidebar:
>>> a = st.sidebar.radio('Select one:', [1, 2])

# Or use "with" notation:
>>> with st.sidebar:
>>>   st.radio('Select one:', [1, 2])
Columns
# Two equal columns:
>>> col1, col2 = st.columns(2)
>>> col1.write("This is column 1")
>>> col2.write("This is column 2")

# Three different columns:
>>> col1, col2, col3 = st.columns([3, 1, 1])
# col1 is larger.

# You can also use "with" notation:
>>> with col1:
>>>   st.radio('Select one:', [1, 2])
Control flow
st.stop()

>>> with st.form(key='my_form'):
>>>   username = st.text_input('Username')
>>>   password = st.text_input('Password')
>>>   st.form_submit_button('Login')
Display interactive widgets
st.button('Click me')
st.checkbox('I agree')
st.radio('Pick one', ['cats', 'dogs'])
st.selectbox('Pick one', ['cats', 'dogs'])
st.multiselect('Buy', ['milk', 'apples', 'potatoes'])

st.time_input('Meeting time')
st.file_uploader('Upload a photo')
st.download_button('Download file', data)
st.color_picker('Pick a color')

# Use widgets' returned values in variables:
>>> for i in range(int(st.number_input('Num:'))):
>>>   foo()
>>> if st.sidebar.selectbox('I:',['f']) == 'f':
>>>   b()
>>> my_slider_val = st.slider('Quinn Mallory', 1, 88)
>>> st.write(slider_val)
Mutate data
# Add rows to a dataframe after
# showing it.
>>> element = st.dataframe(df1)
>>> element.add_rows(df2)

# Add rows to a chart after
# showing it.
>>> element = st.line_chart(df1)
>>> element.add_rows(df2)
Display code
>>> with st.echo():
>>>   st.write('Code will be executed and printed')
Placeholders, help, and options
# Replace any single element.
>>> element = st.empty()
>>> element.line_chart(...)
>>> element.text_input(...)  # Replaces previous.

# Insert out of order.
>>> elements = st.container()
>>> elements.line_chart(...)
>>> st.write("Hello")
>>> elements.text_input(...)  # Appears above "Hello".

Optimize performance
Legacy caching
>>> @st.cache
... def foo(bar):
...   # Do something expensive in here...
...   return data
>>> # Executes foo
>>> d1 = foo(ref1)
>>> # Does not execute foo
>>> # Returns cached item by reference, d1 == d2
>>> d2 = foo(ref1)
>>> # Different arg, so function foo executes
>>> d3 = foo(ref2)
Cache data objects
# E.g. Dataframe computation, storing downloaded data, etc.
>>> @st.experimental_memo
... def foo(bar):
...   # Do something expensive and return data
...   return data
# Executes foo
>>> d1 = foo(ref1)
# Does not execute foo
# Returns cached item by value, d1 == d2
>>> d2 = foo(ref1)
# Different arg, so function foo executes
>>> d3 = foo(ref2)
Cache non-data objects
# E.g. TensorFlow session, database connection, etc.
>>> @st.experimental_singleton
... def foo(bar):
...   # Create and return a non-data object
...   return session
# Executes foo
>>> s1 = foo(ref1)
# Does not execute foo
# Returns cached item by reference, d1 == d2
>>> s2 = foo(ref1)
# Different arg, so function foo executes
>>> s3 = foo(ref2)
Display progress and status
>>> with st.spinner(text='In progress'):
>>>   time.sleep(5)
>>>   st.success('Done')
