It’s impressive how mature Pyodide has become — running Python scientific tools in the browser opens up a lot of possibilities.

I’ve been working on a small (~800-line) Python system that uses sparse regression to discover physical laws from raw data. It was able to estimate the Sun’s rotation (~25.1 days vs 27 days actual) and found a temperature ~ velocity^3.40 relationship in solar wind data.

Having this kind of lightweight stack in the browser could make exploratory science much more accessible.
