Interactive Football Pitch Using Jupyter Voila

Jupyter voila allows to serve Jupyter notebooks, and especially ipywidgets, as standalone applications. This repository contains an example notebook which uses qgrid and bqplot to create a simple interactive football pitch. You can test it live in Binder or run it locally.

The deployed notebook can be found here: Notebook on Heroku
(Be patient, it might need some time to spin up the dyno on Heroku.)
