The xeus-python kernel compiled to WebAssembly and installable in JupyterLite!

[!WARNING] jupyterlite-xeus-python is DEPRECATED. Please see jupyterlite-xeus-python deprecation.

Features:

  • all IPython features included (magics, matplotlib inline etc)

  • code completion

  • code inspection

  • interactive widgets (ipywidgets, ipyleaflet, bqplot, ipycanvas etc)

How does it compare to the Pyodide kernel for JupyterLite?

  • from time import sleep works!

  • starts faster!

  • it’s lighter by default!

  • no more piplite, but we will be working on a mambalite, stay tuned :D
