Hi, today I stumbled upon Streamlit and it looks decently rad! Well done!
I also peaked into its source code a little and get that the state is synced using protobufs between the backend and the frontend. However I wonder how easy it is to create my own widgets.
What I would like to try is integrating a Bokeh widget that can provide information about events that happen in the plot like panning/zooming/clicking etc.
I’m using Bokeh/Holoviews rather extensively at my organization and have quite a few data intensive plots to do that requires lazy loading data when the plot is panned, otherwise the browser will crash because of too much memory usage.
Is there any documentation on how the widgets work internally where I could start when trying this?
Or if there is no documentation, is there any chance to get the JS pipeline for compiling the react components running easily for widgets that are not part of the core?
Thanks already, I’m really intrigued to play more with the project.
