summary
Shows concrete practices not platitudes: use real data because dummy data often breaks designs with overplotting or no trend and forces last minute rewrites, assume an intelligent impatient reader and lead them with a clear message title and takeaway, and build Bokeh server app demos that stitch snapshots into a narrative. Code is posted, the crude but working trick of replace layout children refreshes frames, animated start draws attention to the slider, and Hans Rosling / NYT examples model show+tell interactivity that actually works.
