# The WebAgg backend is divided into two modules:
#
# - `backend_webagg_core.py` contains code necessary to embed a WebAgg
#   plot inside of a web application, and communicate in an abstract
#   way over a web socket.
#
# - `backend_webagg.py` contains a concrete implementation of a basic
#   application, implemented with tornado.
