ipyevents

Browsers events for your jupyter widgets

ipyevents provides a custom widget for returning mouse and keyboard events to Python. Use it to:

• add keyboard shortcuts to an existing widget;
• react to the user clicking on an image;
• add callbacks on arbitrary mouse and keyboard events.

See this demo notebook for documentation.
