If you've wanted to get started with #python and #rstats in the browser (wasm style), don't miss out on Quarto-live, which makes this very easy: github.com/r-wasm/quart...

I'm using it myself on this (very much WIP) beginners course in R: beginr.org
GitHub - r-wasm/quarto-live: WebAssembly powered code blocks and exercises for both the R and Python languages in Quarto documents
