Is this downloading and installing Python packages into the browser via wasm?
I like the idea a little bit. Mostly because I don't like javascript. So I say keep going for it, it could fill some niches.
I'm sure you know this, but the page takes like 30s to load on mobile. It wasn't a comfortable ux. Once it did load it seemed pretty fast though so kudos. Kind of gave me macromedia flash vibes from 2002.
You still need JavaScript to instantiate WebAssembly and let it interact with the page, which is why your sibling comment admits there's still a bit of JS.

If no JavaScript then what enables interactivity?
Thanks for the question! I should have said almost no JavaScript:
There is a minimal amount of JavaScript just to download and run pyodide and then it is only Python: see example at

Very very impressive! So many use cases for this. Thanks again
Web assembly? This started out as a bowdlerised form of JavaScript (asm.js) but evolved to become is own thing.
