Issues connecting vtk.js remote view to pvserver in paraview 5.13

The examples for RemoteView in vtk.js are not functioning anymore when using paraview 5.13 because wslink is missing in pvpython and it is used in the pvserver.py startup script (this broke existing pipelines for those using the old approach and have no interest in moving to Trame).

Is there a way to achieve the configuration available until paraview 5.12?

I did try to follow what explained for Python virtual environments, and installed vtk[web] in the environment. However, attempting to start pvserver with the environment as argument fails due to missing other dependencies (vtkRemotingCore).

Resolved here [Bug] Unable to user RemoteView to connect to pvserver in paraview 5.13 following the example · Issue #3120 · Kitware/vtk-js · GitHub

In short, make a python environment and install only wslink, not vtk[web] as suggested in the error message.

Should the example docs include info about installing only wslink, @Sebastien_Jourdain ?
