Worries about dependency size in downstream libraries

[Noghpu]

Hello,

I've seen this discussion in the NiceGUI repo. I would love this feature to get merged but it seems like there are some worries/apprehensions about having anywidget as a direct dependency. One of the things is the size of the anywidget repo, and a few other things.

I'm not in deep enough to really help out, but was hoping there's someone here that might be able to chip in and help the NiceGUI team out, resulting in a wider adoption of anywidget.

Cheers

Hi there, I'm going to cut a release that remove the culprit directories in the sdist/wheel (docs/, paper/) which will decrease the size of anywidget as a direct dependency. #902 Long term I'd like to have the option to move off of ipywidgets as a required dependency in anywidget, but would like to avoid making promises on timeline.

Great to hear!
Thanks
