Pyodide is a port of CPython to the WebAssembly platform. PyScript is a framework that uses Pyodide to provide a framework for developing Python applications in the browser. Its elevator pitch would be "python inside script tags via pyodide".

This uses pyodide. It's more like a Python to JS transpiler (even if it's not). It's to create browser apps using Python. So it's Pyodide + a browser API.

Pyodide is a runtime.

PyScript can use Pyodide or MicroPython. MicroPython is actually quite small.

On top of the runtime, PyScript gives you some pleasantries and a lot of quality-of-life improvements for actually using Python for web programming, not just being able to run Python code.

Its a wrapper.
