Make ipympl a standard package

[Eric Gourgoulhon]

Hi Sage dev,

In PR #36129, which is devoted to the upgrade to Jupyter Notebook 7, we are proposing to make ipympl a standard package.

ipympl is a pip-installable package that enables using the interactive features of Matplotlib in Jupyter Notebook and Jupyterlab, via the magic %matplotlib widget or %matplotlib ipympl, cf. https://matplotlib.org/ipympl/

Here is an example of use in Sage:

https://nbviewer.org/github/egourgoulhon/SageMathTest/blob/master/Notebooks/test_display.ipynb

With this package, matplotlib.pyplot (the standard "plt") becomes interactive (e.g. one can zoom  and scroll with the mouse), which is quite nice. 

Please give your opinion about making ipympl a standard package. 

Eric.

+1, it's a useful tiny package and unproblematic to install.

Hi Eric,

I see no interaction in the "test_display" notebook rendered by nbviewer. If you provide the latest version of the notebook, I can put it into the notebooks directory

of  https://github.com/sagemath/sage-binder-env/tree/dev. Where is the notebook?

This is a limitation of nbviewer.  

If you provide the latest version of the notebook, I can put it into the notebooks directory

of  https://github.com/sagemath/sage-binder-env/tree/dev. Where is the notebook? 

The notebook is here:

https://github.com/egourgoulhon/SageMathTest/blob/master/Notebooks/test_display.ipynb 

(you can see it by clicking on the Github icon in the nbviewer top right menu).

Best wishes,

Eric.

PS: I've just updated the notebook for checking that long math expressions are wrapped.
