|
|
The Python scientific stack, compiled to WebAssembly.
|
|
|
|
## What is Pyodide?
|
|
|
|
**Pyodide** brings the Python runtime to the browser via WebAssembly, along with the Python scientific stack including NumPy, Pandas, Matplotlib, parts of SciPy, and NetworkX. The [`packages` directory](https://github.com/iodide-project/pyodide/tree/master/packages) lists over 35 packages which are currently available.
|
|
|
|
**Pyodide** provides transparent conversion of objects between Javascript and Python.
|
|
When used inside a browser, Python has full access to the Web APIs.
|
|
|
|
While closely related to the [iodide project](https://iodide.io), a tool for *literate scientific computing and communication for the web*, Pyodide goes beyond running in a notebook environment. To maximize the flexibility of the modern web, **Pyodide** may
|
|
be used standalone in any context where you want to **run Python inside a web
|
|
browser**.
|
|
|
|
## Try Pyodide (no installation needed)
|
|
|
|
Try the [iodide demo notebook](https://alpha.iodide.io/notebooks/300/) or fire
|
|
up a [Python REPL](https://pyodide.cdn.iodide.io/console.html) directly in your
|
|
browser.
|
|
|
|
For further information, look through the [documentation](https://pyodide.readthedocs.io/).

|
|
## Getting Started
|
|
|
|
Pyodide offers three different ways to get started depending on your needs and technical resources.
|
|
These include:
|
|
|
|
- Use hosted distribution of pyodide: see [using pyodide from
|
|
Javascript](https://pyodide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/using_pyodide_from_javascript.html)
|
|
documentation.
|
|
- Download a pre-built version from this
|
|
repository's [releases
|
|
page](https://github.com/iodide-project/pyodide/releases/) and serve its contents with
|
|
a web server.
|
|
- [Build Pyodide from source](https://pyodide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/building_from_sources.html)
|
|
- Build natively with `make`: primarily for Linux users who want to
|
|
experiment or contribute back to the project.
|
|
- [Use a Docker image](https://pyodide.readthedocs.io/en/latest/building_from_sources.html#using-docker):
|
|
recommended for Windows and macOS users and for Linux users who prefer a
|
|
Debian-based Docker image with the dependencies already installed.
