Enhancing Jupyter with Widgets with Trevor Manz - creator of anywidget‪.‬ Sample Space

In this (first!) episode of Sample Space we talk to Trevor Mantz, the creator of anywidget. It's a (neat!) tool to help you build more interactive notebooks by giving you tools to apply just enough Javascript to get directional communication working in your favorite notebook environment. That means that Python can talk to widgets, but also that widgets can talk to Python. There's a lot to like about these widgets and we're doing a proper deep dive in this first episode.
To learn more about anywidget, check out the docs. In particular you may want to glance at the gallery first, it has loads of nice examples.
You can also find the project on Github and if you're eager to talk to folks involved with the project, consider joining the discord here.
