I would agree that pyxley never came close to the functionality of Shiny, but my goal was a little different. My goal was to make a set of reusable components that were also really flexible. I wanted to be able to mix custom things with generic things without too much trouble. I think in trying to be flexible, I introduced too much complexity. Also, I never really got around to making a decent set of widgets and so it's definitely lacking in features.

I wrote a wrapper for the Plotly javascript library and I use Plotly charts in some of my apps. If I ever had some time, I could probably make a pretty decent clone. One interesting difference is how they are turning the python into javascript. I gave up on that and just ship a pre-built javascript bundle that receives props from the flask app.
