        Description
        -----------
        
        `toscawidgets2 (tw2)`_ aims to be a practical and useful widgets framework
        that helps people build interactive websites with compelling features, faster
        and easier. Widgets are re-usable web components that can include a template,
        server-side code and JavaScripts/CSS resources. The library aims to be:
        flexible, reliable, documented, performant, and as simple as possible.
        
        `protovis`_ composes custom views of data with simple marks such as bars and dots. Unlike low-level graphics libraries that quickly become tedious for visualization, Protovis defines marks through dynamic properties that encode data, allowing inheritance, scales and layouts to simplify construction.
        
        This module, tw2.protovis.conventional, provides `toscawidgets2 (tw2)`_ widgets that render `protovis`_ data visualizations.
        
        
        Sampling tw2.protovis.conventional in the WidgetBrowser
        -------------------------------------
        
        The best way to scope out ``tw2.protovis.conventional`` is to load its widgets in the
        ``tw2.devtools`` WidgetBrowser.  To see the source code that configures them,
        check out ``tw2.protovis.conventional/samples.py``
        
        To give it a try you'll need git, mercurial, python, and virtualenv.  Run:
        
        ``git clone git://github.com/ralphbean/tw2.protovis.conventional.git``
        
        ``cd tw2.protovis.conventional``
        
        The following script will set up all the necessary tw2 dependencies in a
        python virtualenv:
        
        ``./develop-tw2-destroy-and-setup.sh``
        
        The following will enter the virtualenv and start up ``paster tw2.browser``:
        
        ``./develop-tw2-start.sh``
        
        ...and browse to http://localhost:8000/ to check it out.
