### Strongly Discouraged

`wxyz_notebooks`, not **recommended for production use**, requires all of the
`wxyz_*` packages.

Some _`extra(s)` dangerous_ dependencies are available as well

```bash
pip install wxyz_notebooks              # wxyz_*
pip install wxyz_notebooks[binder]      # everything used on binder demos, used in tests
pip install wxyz_notebooks[thirdparty]  # some casually co-tested third-party packages
pip install wxyz_notebooks[all]         # everything. it's a lot. good luck.
```

It is unknown whether the heavier dependencies will continue to work in the future
and may carry _very specific version pins_ which might not be solveable with any old:

- operating system
- version of python
- package manager

## Motivation

`wxyz` contains a number of "missing pieces" from the [ipywidgets][] toolbox.
It is made up of a number of packages for Python and the browser, in [this repo][].
While many create _pixels on the page_, some are focused around configurably
transforming the [traitlets][] of one widget to another, in the _kernel_, the
_browser_ or _both_.

## Uninstall

We're sad to see you go!

Use `pip` or `conda` to uninstall any `wxyz_*` packages.

## Alternatives

If you don't like `wxyz`, that's fine! There are a number of related tools that
might be better suited to your needs.

- [formulas]
  - a python-side re-implementation of an Excel/LibreOffice reactive functional
    programming model
- [ipyevents]
  - fine-grained DOM event control
- [ipylab]
  - a number of similar utilities as parts of `wxyz.lab`, and nice
    support for commands, and additional [lumino][] primitives, e.g. `SplitPanel`
- [ipyregulartable]
  - a high-performance datagrid solution, supporting pandas `MultiIndex`-type
    data
- [jupyter-starters]
  - wizard-style project templates, driven by simple configuration, JSON Schema
    or notebooks
- [jupyterlab-tour]
  - a pleasant "guided tour" of JupyterLab via CSS selectors and JSON Schema
