I'm pretty sure he's talking about tools that make it really slick to
put up graphs in a window and manipulate them with GUI controls.
Nothing to do with html or web programming here, at least not what the
OP was asking for.

Such things can be done in Python using a GUI library, but that's quite
a bit more work than using the SHINY library appears to be in R.  The OP
might be advised to check out the SciPy forums and mailing lists.  Or
talk to the folks at the Sage project.
