Description

bug documentation

suggest updating the https://plotly.com/python/figurewidget/ doc, along the lines

only for Jupyter widgets, with pip install anywidget

is that correct ?

(For my understanding, why is that so -- how is rendering to Jupyter different from other renderers ?

Movies of data packets of different sizes and speeds trundling through plotly might be fun.)
