We’ve been wanting to expand Qvault’s course curriculum, and one of the most requested programming languages has been Python. Because our courses allow students to write and execute code right in the web browser, we decided to look into existing projects that allow a Python interpreter to run in the browser using Web Assembly. We settled on a tool called Pyodide, which does just that.

To see it in action, check out the finished product, a Python playground.
