Technical requirements

Before we can work with new Streamlit Components, we need to download them first. We can download each using pip (or any other package manager), just as we did with Streamlit in Chapter 1, An Introduction to Streamlit. These are the components to be downloaded:

• streamlit-embedcode: To download this library, run the following code in your terminal: 

  pip install streamlit-embedcode

  streamlit-embedcode makes it easy to import code blocks from other locations (such as a GitHub gist) and show them directly in your apps, and was created by Randy Zwitch, a Streamlit employee. 

• streamlit-lottie: To download this library, run the following code in your terminal:

  pip install streamlit-lottie

  streamlit-lottie uses the lottie open source library to allow us to add web-native animations (such as a Graphics Interchange Format (GIF) file) into our Streamlit apps. It is frankly a wonderful library for beautifying Streamlit apps and was created by Andy...
