    Alternatively, try pygfx for ThreeJS graphics in Python leveraging wgpu. It works great in Notebooks through notebook-rfb. https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx

    If you're adventurous, figure out how to make pygfx work with webgpu via wasm

    Rather than using matplotlib, you could try either pygfx (https://github.com/pygfx/pygfx) or fastplotlib (https://github.com/kushalkolar/fastplotlib) to make higher performance graphics using Python.

    However, it won't solve your problem of Python not being fast enough doing the calculations.

    I made my own, using WGPU and this basic graphics engine: https://github.com/David-OConnor/graphics_wgpu

    Note that there's currently no docs or template/examples, and I'm rapidly breaking the API.

    The surface plots are just meshes of a grid divided into triangles.

    So, not a plotting lib at all; a flexible 3d and UI lib. Could probably made usable by others with a basic example of how you interact with the render and UI.
