Hi Matt,

I like it.  The clearest example seems to be this one:

      https://jsfiddle.net/viebel/50oLnykk/

Some observations follow:

The syntax for Klipse source blocks is nice and simple:

    <div class="klipse">
     function foo(name) {return "Hello " + name;}
     foo("Klipse");
    </div>

It might be worth investigating whether you can just run Klipse on <pre>
blocks as that would potentially make it backward compatible.
Potentially, an extension to Klipse that recognizes Org src blocks (in
html) might be nice.

The Klipse license is GPL3.

The README recommends to get the files from googleapis.com.  I’m not sure
we would want to generate html files that get stuff from Google.  Then
again, maybe googleapis.com is perfectly OK...

It could easily become a mess in complex cases, e.g. if your Python code
blocks use Pandas, which does not seem to be supported by Skulpt.

Nonetheless, Klipse looks intriguing.  I think it could be great if you
look further into it.

Thanks,
Rasmus
