Initially I had the idea of using this as a teaching tool for python. Students would be able to use a list of abstracted python functions to draw to a canvas in the browser. I knew this would not be easy, but it would be educational for me as well. This project arose from the constraint of working with a very basic python install that only included the standard library. I realised that javascript did not support raw tcp socket communication, and that the python standard library did not support websockets. What to do? I guess I'll just write my own websockets... And thus I implemended websockets in python... In an easily usable form as a library because... I was not done yet. The next step was of course to tell the browser to draw shapes. This was not too difficult, I just send binary data from the python code to the javascript code, which then interprets it and draws shapes with it. Sadly I never polished this project as I have not had a use for it.
