I just recently started experimenting with Brython to create WebGL apps.  I've done straight OpenGL via Python for *years* and wanted to leverage that knowledge and code for WebGL without getting any deeper into Javascript than necessary.

I'm happy to report that Brython worked perfectly, seamlessly providing Python calls to (the JavaScript API) WebGL.  Amazingly well done!
