Abstract: We will begin with a brief overview of the history of general-purpose multidimensional web visualization, including the development of vtk.js and ParaViewWeb. The main focus of this hands-on workshop, however, is to teach you how to use Trame, an open-source framework for building interactive web applications and dashboards for data visualization. Trame leverages Python and popular visualization tools such as VTK and ParaView, and it offers plugins for many other Python plotting libraries.
In this session, we will introduce Trame's core concepts, demonstrate how to create simple interactive visualizations, and show how to put them online for easy sharing. This workshop is ideal for researchers and data scientists who want to turn their static visualizations into interactive, shareable experiences without needing extensive web development expertise.
