Is this similar at all to the old pyjs/pyjamas project? I had some fun playing with that but there was no way I would have ever actually made anything serious with it.

That was a very cool project, though I believe they aren't really related, even though they seem similar. Pyjs/Pyjamas was a more of a Python to JavaScript transpiler.

This is the actual CPython runtime with full standard library and many of the Python mathematical and plotting libraries compiled to WASM, running in the browser. It can also be included with other HTML and JavaScript on a web page just by wrapping the Python in a tag.

I made a few internal UIs with it. It was easy for that and worked well (and fun). This was 2010
