Creating a UI component that can update itself

I want to create a batch element, where a drop-down lets the user configure the content of the batch elements, such as having additional features revealed if choosing to do so by the user.

Yea, use allow_self_loops=True in the mo.state constructor.
import marimo

__generated_with = "0.7.0"
app = marimo.App(width="medium")


@app.cell
def __():
import marimo as mo
return mo,


@app.cell
def __(mo):
get_state, set_state = mo.state(0, allow_self_loops=True)
return get_state, set_state


@app.cell
def __(get_state, set_state):
if (i := get_state()) < 10:
print(i)
set_state(lambda v: v + 1)
return i,


if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run()
import marimo

__generated_with = "0.7.0"
app = marimo.App(width="medium")


@app.cell
def __():
import marimo as mo
return mo,


@app.cell
def __(mo):
get_state, set_state = mo.state(0, allow_self_loops=True)
return get_state, set_state


@app.cell
def __(get_state, set_state):
if (i := get_state()) < 10:
print(i)
set_state(lambda v: v + 1)
return i,


if __name__ == "__main__":
app.run()
