panel 1.9.0

Version 1.9.0

on Python PyPI

Panel 1.9.0 delivers full typing compatibility with Param 2.4.0, finally ensuring that all parameters are fully typed. Additionally this release makes it possible to provide wildcard routes to pn.serve making it possible to support dynamic routing. It also includes a significant modernization of the widget API, introducing Widget.label as the canonical display label parameter and renaming button_type/button_style to color/variant for better alignment with panel-material-ui, which will be integrated within Panel in upcoming releases. The release also includes a range of Tabulator improvements, chat enhancements, security updates, and numerous bug fixes. Lastly, this release drops support for Bokeh 3.7.
