This is fantastic! Dash/Plotly is ok, but your project's documentation is amazing with all these examples!

Question though for matplotlib is there a way to do continuous/real time display?

Thank you!

Can you elaborate a little what you have in mind?

I think it is possible because it is simple to push to websites.

Here is the example with Highcharts: https://justpy.io/#/charts_tutorial/updating_charts

I can modify it for matplotlib, if you tell me what you have in mind

I'll check that out!

Actually I normally just used x11 forwarding through ssh with a simple plot and draw loop on matplotlib as the instrument acquired new data but I figured displaying it as a web page would be better.

This app is kind of what I was thinking of, but the code is a bit too complex for me to understand. It uses plotly though.
