Description

There is now a lot of really nice functionality in ipympl, but it is hard to find. The in-depth documentation at ipywidgets is a really good supporting resource, but some aspects (like `display(fig.canvas)` and not `display(fig)` need to be clearly expressed.

I'm happy to write documentation for ipympl, but to do that we need some sort of framework to write in. Can someone help with this?

Research direction

The issue names no files or tests; start by reviewing ipympl's existing documentation alongside the in-depth ipywidgets documentation. Define a documentation framework for ipympl and clearly explain the differing uses of `display(fig.canvas)` and `display(fig)`; the issue does not specify further completion criteria.
