Description

Variable subsetting is fully implemented, but the long list of available variables is cumbersome to interact with (especially for new ICESat-2 data users). JupyterHub enables the creation of widgets, providing users a more interactive interface. This issue marks our desire to create a variable selection widget within icepyx to make the process of variable selection more interactive.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Study existing variable subsetting implementation and Jupyter widget libraries like ipywidgets. Look at examples in other projects for interactive data selection.
