COOOKIES!¤

the cookies demo is a go to demo from Bret Viktor's tanglejs.

if you eat {{cookies.value}} that you consume {{cookies.value * calories}} calories.

    calories = 50
    display(cookies := IntSlider(3, 1, description="COOKIES"))

## `pidgy` widget integration

out of the box, `pidgy` relies on `IPython`s markdown display, but in this document we use the `pidgy.displays.IPyWidgetsHtml` display

    shell.weave.template_cls = pidgy.displays.IPyWidgetsHtml

the  reactive and asynchronous `pidgy.displays.IPyWidgetsHtml` display passes the input through a jinja environment then it is parsed into html by `shell.weave.markdown_renderer`.


after each exection we link undeclared variables in the jinja templates to any interactive widgets.
when widgets change, the display changes as shown in the COOOKIES demo.
