> 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.

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 :) !

> Why do you find the example misleading?

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
