Excited to share that my talk 🎥 on Next-Generation Data Science Education with WebAssembly Technologies from pyOpenSci's Fall Festival 2024 is now available! Resources and links follow in this thread. 🧵

In this presentation, I showcase how WebAssembly (WASM) brings interactive coding directly into slide decks using Python (via Pyodide) through quarto-live - the official Posit Quarto WebAssembly backend by George Stagg.

This approach transforms data science education by:

💻 Running code directly in browser - no server needed!
🔄 Enabling live coding with instant feedback
⚡ Creating interactive visualizations
🏫 Making complex concepts accessible

eliminates infrastructure barriers, allowing educators to focus on teaching rather than technical setup. It integrates seamlessly with existing Quarto course websites and documents.
