are we limited to certain libraries for now? I am guessing we can't do pip install, but maybe this version of Python can interact with other javascrupt (e.g. JQuery)?

Most of the builtin types and functions are not fully implemented yet, but if they are, you may use any library that is implemented in pure Python.
There is already support for threading and I am also planing to implement a filesystem as well as multiprocessing using WebWorkers. Even sockets will be possible with node.js.
Then yes, you can do "pip install".
There is also a module that allows you to use native JS libraries like JQuery.
