## About

**anywidget** is both a [**specification**](https://anywidget.dev/en/afm) and
**toolkit** for authoring reusable web-based widgets for interactive computing
environments.

- 🛠️ create custom Jupyter Widgets **without complicated cookiecutter templates**
- 📚 **publish to PyPI** like any other Python package
- 🤖 prototype **within** `.ipynb` or `.py` files
- 🚀 run in **Jupyter**, **JupyterLab**, **Google Colab**, **VSCode**, [**marimo**](https://github.com/marimo-team/marimo) and more
- ⚡ develop with **instant HMR**, like modern web frameworks

Learn more in the
[Jupyter blog](https://blog.jupyter.org/anywidget-jupyter-widgets-made-easy-164eb2eae102).

## Installation

**anywidget** is available on [PyPI](https://pypi.org/project/anywidget/):

```bash
pip install "anywidget[dev]"
```

and also on [conda-forge](https://anaconda.org/conda-forge/anywidget):

```bash
conda install -c conda-forge anywidget
```

## Usage

The easiest way to start developing with **anywidget** is with the Python package.

```python
import anywidget
import traitlets

class CounterWidget(anywidget.AnyWidget):
# Widget front-end JavaScript code
_esm = """
function render({ model, el }) {
let button = document.createElement("button");
button.innerHTML = `count is ${model.get("value")}`;
button.addEventListener("click", () => {
model.set("value", model.get("value") + 1);
model.save_changes();
});
model.on("change:value", () => {
button.innerHTML = `count is ${model.get("value")}`;
});
el.appendChild(button);
}
export default { render };
"""
# Stateful property that can be accessed by JavaScript & Python
value = traitlets.Int(0).tag(sync=True)
```

Front-end code can also live in separate files (recommend):

```python
import pathlib
import anywidget
import traitlets

class CounterWidget(anywidget.AnyWidget):
_esm = pathlib.Path("index.js")
_css = pathlib.Path("styles.css")
value = traitlets.Int(0).tag(sync=True)
```

## Packages

Beyond the primary Python package, **anywidget** provides an ecosystem of
tooling to help you build and distribute custom widgets.
