The current funding environment is... challenging to say the least. So don't overpay to build scientific figures with overly complicated licenses.

Making custom Jupyter widgets with React is surprisingly straightforward 🐍❤️🌐

1) Build React component
2) `npm run dev` and `jupyter lab`
3) Use anywidget to bridge Python/JS

Why do notebook-to-web-app conversions suck? The frontend handoff.

Instead, give data scientists access to your production component library in their notebooks. Let them prototype real UX, not just backend logic. Faster iterations ultimately mean better products 🚀

Added the ability to easily grab a sequence from a pdb id and then mask out a section

Built a small sequence generator tool 🧬
You can:
- constrain to specific bases, specific length
- copy as fasta
- free to use, all stored locally!
