Patrick et. al,
Here is the xtk-ipython repo:
https://github.com/richstoner/xtk-ipython-examples
I think that, as part of the plans to eliminate arbitrary js execution at
the notebook interface, building out wrappers around the larger js
frameworks makes a lot of sense. This is the approach taken here:
