I've been experimenting with Jupyter notebooks recently so I thought I'd try uploading one I made which solves a wooden puzzle. It seemed to work just fine! https://notebooks.azure.com/library/puzzles https://notebooks.azure.com/library/puzzles I had to host the images in the notebook elsewhere rather than upload them with the notebook. It looks like that is possible but then I'd have to grapple with Azure blobs...

Working with Azure Storage Blobs is pretty straightforward - you can use the cross platform azure CLI application or use the Azure Storage Explorer application (which appears to be cross-platform as well in its latest form): http://storageexplorer.com/ http://storageexplorer.com/

  I've been using the linux version for a couple months now, and it's a truck ton better than exploring through VS. I'm still waiting for it to support tabs, or any other multi-tasking interface. That's sort of a pain.

    for those on windows and don't mind dropping a little $, I've been relatively happy with CloudXPlorer http://clumsyleaf.com/products/cloudxplorer http://clumsyleaf.com/products/cloudxplorer for browsing blobs. Has most of the features I care about TableXPlorer (for Azure Table Storage is decent too)

Pretty surprised at this as well. But, given you know this requirement now, is it safe to assume that if you embed remote images in your notebooks in future and upload them you'll have no issue? (i.e. it's not stripping them out and making you manually re-embed them each time if they aren't an Azure blob?)

That's a great use of Jupyter! You've taken a concrete problem, the wooden puzzle, and written a well explained software solution to solve it. Anyone can come behind you and add a 3d graphic or analyze the space and time utilization of the algorithm.

Hi! Proper data support is coming soon. For now, you can link directly to blobs, github, etc. [msft]

That's a great notebook! Thanks for sharing.

Wow. It's a really well written notebook with an interesting problem and equally interesting solution.
