Introduction to ipywidgets | Jupyter Widgets Introduction | What is ipywidgets with an example

In this tutorial video, we'll learn about ipywidgets, a Python library for building interactive HTML widgets for your Jupyter browser. We begin by answering, "What is ipywidgets?" Also called Jupyter Widgets or Widgets for short, ipywidgets help students with interactive learning and help researchers understand their model parameters. We then talk about how you can install ipywidgets and get started importing the library and building a basic integer slider (IntSlider). I show you how to display the widget and various properties of the IntSlider. Next we move on to an example from my YouTube channel: a KDE bandwidth widget. I show you how to link up your seaborn or matplotlib figures with ipywidgets to explore various parameters with a Jupyter Widgets interactive plot. We end by talking about other widgets you can make, such as check boxes, drop downs, date pickers, animations, and more.

Wow! I often find videos online more difficult for beginners to understand due to the presenter grossly over complicating things. Your video was so well laid out and easy to take in that I will be sharing it with all of my new incoming Data Analysts. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with the world!

Just starting on Python. very interesting IDEs out there for programing compared to what I'm used to. Might be very interesting.

It´s a pretty well done explanation, thank you! :)

Nice tutorial. It would be great if you could do similar tutorials on interactive plots in e.g. plotly exp. Or a comparison video. Having mastered the basics of seaborn I'm still confused by all the libraries for interactive plots.

thank you so much, for your videos, Do you know how to use voila in Jupyter notebook ?

I have one question...can we open GUI like pygame window using jupyter notebook?

Hello Kim,

Just wondering how do you collapse the cell? Which library do you use? Thank you!

How can we see data on charts when we hovering through mouse

[epacg]

Did not work .. here is the fix ...The first example that you show at 1:30 is not what happens. Instead this happens:

[1] :import ipywidgets as widgets
[2]: widgets.IntSlider()
IntSlider(value=0)

Instead of displaying the widget as it did in your video, is just echoes some text, as shown

I am using JupyterLab Version 3.2.1. Everything is the most recent version, because I am only on my second day trying out JupyterLab. The older directions for Jupyter Notebook says to also run this:
jupyter nbextension enable --py widgetsnbextension

And after I did that, the widgets started showing.

Hi everyone,
Is there a possibility to change the label on the widget to another then the name of the variable used ?
And how ?

Thank You!
