"If you are working interactively at an (I)python prompt, the GUI framework is not critical (mostly aesthetic) however when working in Jupyter we need to pick a backend that integrates with Jupyter (javascript) framework.\n",

This is still useful content for people who will are reading this that will mostly work at a prompt. Can it just be re-worrked rather than fully deleted?

Added that part back. Hope that's fine.

Is this alright, or needs rephrasing?

I don't see where these changes are using the widget backend.

They aren't if I am not wrong. I removed the nbagg backend and installed the ipympl it seems to work fine for these notebooks. The issue for the %matplotlib widget still remains.

If you are not getting interactive figures (can you pan / zoom?) then things are not working correctly.

I have fixed the widget issue by running the following bash commands:

conda install -y nodejs
pip install --upgrade jupyterlab
jupyter labextension install @jupyter-widgets/jupyterlab-manager
jupyter labextension install jupyter-matplotlib
jupyter nbextension enable --py widgetsnbextension

I get interactive figures now.
