CodeTheCity: Python WebAssembly - Rob McWilliam

We will start with a look at what WebAssembly (WASM) is and how it can be used, then look at some of the options for running python code in WASM.This will include

* "official" CPython WASM build.
* Spin SDK github.com
* Pyodide github.com
* marimo marimo.io Jupyter style notebooks in WASM with an interesting dataflow model for cell execution
* whatever other interesting things I find while writing the talk :)

After the talk we will have one or more challenges for you to attempt - so bring your laptop!
