Switch to the xeus python kernel

jtpio opened this issue · comments

The Xeus Python kernel for JupyterLite allows for pre-installing packages at build time: https://xeus-python-kernel.readthedocs.io/en/latest/configuration.html#pre-installed-packages

It could be useful to switch to that kernel for this JupyterLite deployment, since the folks coming from https://jupyter.org/try might wonder why they need to call piplite.install() before using other packages.

They may also wonder why they can't install anything else...

For now. This will eventually be possible.

The reverse could also have been true a few months ago: jupyterlite/pyodide-kernel#27

Now that pyodide-lock is packaged and supported by pyodide 0.24.0, that PR can be revisited to allay some of the concerns about complexity.
