Cool site!

> Many businesses I work with use Tableau free versions, and just manually update the data

Why not just use e.g React/ Angular?

Or is it a question of needing python for the data analytics, and for server cost reasons not wanting it to be run on the server side?

This example could be all javascript (and I try to do that in some scenarios). Most of the other demo's on my site are just javascript/D3 or other libraries even with some slightly more advanced metrics, https://crimede-coder.com/demos.

There are some cases in which I do want python numerical libraries though. Say I wanted to do a forecast ARIMA model based on arbitrary combined inputs for the graphs, or do different types of spatial clustering of the geographic data. Those would be cases pyscript would make sense.

The public dashboards yes IMO easier to not have to worry about server.
