Yes, we are working on adding more examples.

Well you need to be able to serve static files. So if you are building locally you need to start a webserver, otherwise you can use the JsDelivr CDN.

Memory leaks can happen if you translate objects between Python and JS. So of it is unavoidable because it's difficult to know when to destroy Python objects from JS vice versa, but lots of work on it has been done in the 0.17 release with more to come in 0.18

Why do you find the example misleading?

I don't understand, can't I just use offline, static files ?

I would still expect to use my own webserver, unrelated to pyodine, like flask or whatever.

Glad to hear this :) !

I haven't really seen that example in the doc or elsewhere, and I don't understand the steps required to make such example work offline or without a webserver.

EDIT:

Another cool thing of brython is that could "inline" a python script inside a html file, such as:

    <script type="script/python">

or

    <script src="thing.py"></script>

If you just open an HTML file in your browser via its local path (e.g. /home/user/...) the browser will prevent you from loading other files by JS due to CORS. So we need a web-server to set the appropriate CORS headers. Any web-server would do.

For inline code, yes it would be doable someone would need to continue https://github.com/pyodide/pyodide/pull/692

For examples, I'll respond in the Pyodide issue where you commented.

Any other way to agree with CORS without a webserver? What about embedding some js code, or moving the WASM files locally?

Thanks for the answers.

Cheers and good luck for this project, I can't wait for it to progress!

You can work around it by embedding data into HTML files but it's really not recommended https://github.com/pyodide/pyodide/pull/606
