Jupyter Widgets

Jupyter Widgets are interactive browser controls for Jupyter notebooks. While Lonboard's classes are themselves widgets, Jupyter Widgets' design means that widgets integrate with other widgets seamlessly.

For example, the ipywidgets Python library includes many core widgets like sliders, dropdowns, color pickers, and file upload elements. Then you can link widgets together. This means that your widget-based slider or chart can create events that change the display of a Lonboard map based on user input events.
