Moving GUI to a web browser

[agitter]

Installing the ml4bio software can be challenging for some participants on some machines. We can use this issue to track ideas for moving the GUI to a web browser.

One idea would be to find a way to launch the existing software from a Juypter notebook. Then we could test whether Binder also supports launching the software from a notebook.

If I run the following in a Jupyter notebook, it launches a GUI window:

%gui qt
%run checkbox.py
