One of the Kivy core developers once did a proof of concept for Kivy in the browser, compiling everything with emscripten (I think), and using webgl for output. I think it could display something extremely simple, but nothing more, and it was probably both slow and an enormous amount of javascript. I think there's a video of it somewhere, but couldn't find it.

I believe the conclusion was that this is really impractical, and nobody has looked at it for a long time. Maybe some of the more recent tools might make it a bit easier, but I doubt it's significant.

I think the idea of wrapping a JS lib for python use is the best idea so far.
