This looks really nice! I currently use LiveCode (which isn't Python-based) for my daily "I have a bunch of data I'm looking to filter/transform/clean up" tasks. I'm always on the lookout for a similar tool, which for me means:

   1. Text inputs (table/spreadsheet inputs?)
   2. Text outputs
   3. Buttons
   4. Menus
   5. Sliders
   6. Checkboxes/radio buttons

And bonus points for:

   7. bundle it up and give it to someone else to run

I think out of that list you have 2, 3, and 5? https://docs.scripton.dev/api/interact/user-interfaces/widge...

Any chance you'll push further into the build-a-UI-to-muck-with-data realm?

Thanks!

That's correct: 2, 3, and 5 are currently available. This initial set was intended as a minimal (albeit limited) set that demonstrates the UI capabilities. More widgets/controls (including the ones you've mentioned) are definitely coming.

7 is something I've considered (along the lines of a redistributable "Scripton runtime" that packages up the scripts and bundles a portable Python distribution). However, that's currently much further down on the todo list.

		That is exciting news. I will check out Scripton in greater depth, and with the right set of interface widgets I would be in the heart of your target market.
