I'm trying to work through Skienna's algorithms handbook, and note that the author often uses graphical representations of the diagrams to help understand (and even debug) the algorithms. I'd like to reproduce this in python.
How would you go about this? pyQt, pygame and pyglet immediately come to mind, but if I go that route the number of people that I can share my work with becomes quite limited, as compared to the portability of javascript projects.
I guess my question really is: has anyone had success creating an interactive graphical project in the browser using python?
Is this a dream I should give up on, and just do this project in coffeescript/d3?

either Pyjamas (which compiles Python code to Javascript) or Brython
(a more or less complete implementation of Python within Javascript).
For example, see the clock demo on the Brython web page.
Pyjamas is the more established and probably more stable of the two
projects, but you should be aware that there are currently two active
forks of Pyjamas and some controversy surrounding the project
leadership.

Would something like this help http://ipython.org/notebook.html ?

Thanks Ian.
Have you personally used pyjs successfully?
It's ominous that the examples pages are broken...
I was impressed with the accuracy of the Brython implementation. I hope they're able to decrease the web weight in future versions.

I don't have any personal experience with either project. I don't

know what's going on with pyjs.org currently, but the examples at the
pyj.be fork seem to be in working order.
