Make the holoviz tutorial into an anaconda-project
See original GitHub issueWe currently produce only a highly pinned conda package. That’s ok, because holoviz isn’t a library that’s designed to be integrated into someone else’s package (that’s what the libraries underlying holoviz are for). But a highly pinned conda package can be difficult/annoying to install, except in a dedicated environment. So we suggest: create env create -n holoviz-tutorial python=3.7 && conda activate holoviz-tutorial && conda install -c pyviz holoviz
followed by holoviz examples
to get the examples. A nicer alternative might be a “conda env create (remote env file on anaconda.org or maybe github)” command. Or an anaconda project/similar.
Alternatively, we could say something like “conda install pyct && pyct holoviz examples && cd holoviz-examples && conda env create” (pyct having few dependencies and hence being easy to install).

I think renaming the package from holoviz to holoviz-tutorial would be a good move (doesn’t preclude other options in the future).
I agree that renaming it would be an improvement, but I think I favor simply releasing an anaconda-project instead. Seems much simpler than making packages.
