Description

Now that reqlite exists we should totally create a code-example widget for the api docs so people can play with the example code in the browser.

This would be unbelievably cool @mglukhovsky

Research direction

Review the API documentation and the linked reqlite project first to understand the requested browser-based example experience. Define which examples should be runnable and what successful execution should show; the work is done when the agreed widget is integrated into the API docs and examples can be played with in the browser.
