2 Dash

Although it is a gross oversimplification, at first glance Dash seems like Python’s answer to Shiny.

Accordingly, the goals of this chapter are:

• to show the ways the Dash is like Shiny.
• to introduce the ways Dash is different from Shiny.
• to help you form strategies for how to “think” about Dash.

To provide some context, we will use this demonstration app, and examine its code.
