jupyter_sphinx.embed_widgets

I'm wondering if we can run the plots inside the documents on the web with this.

We would be able to render the widgets, but I think the plots would not update by changing values in the widgets.
I don't think this is possible without having some kind of web app running a python kernel in a server.

Hmmmm. perhaps if we used plotly?

It would be neat to showcase something live on the web. These are just some random thoughts. What exactly would be the value of working widgets that don't do anything? I agree that they don't seem to embed any usable code, but why then even bother having widgets?
