Can jupyter do tables and diagrams followed by code snippets in multiple languages?
- Y_Y 10y ago
  Yes. You can use cell magic to change the language for each cell and you can display HTML/latex output inline or just mix computations in with markdown. The only problem is that the editor is just a text box with annoying bracket matching instead of Emacs.

    I really want to like Jupyter. But taking notes or working through things in a textbox element just doesn't cut it. If I could build my notebooks in emacs... But then org mode has most of the same functionality.

      Oh, but you can! Check out ein-mode: https://tkf.github.io/emacs-ipython-notebook/ https://tkf.github.io/emacs-ipython-notebook/

      My biggest Jupyter complaint is that, at least by default, produces files that are pretty hard to revision meaningfully in git.

        The jupyter team are aware of, but not currently fixing, this issue. I use the excellently simple nbstripout as git hook and it silently removes everything but code.

      You actually can: http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2017/01/21/Exporting-org-mode-to-Jupyter-notebooks/ http://kitchingroup.cheme.cmu.edu/blog/2017/01/21/Exporting-...

    Have yet to try it myself, but allegedly you can run a Jupiter notebook inside emacs: https://github.com/millejoh/emacs-ipython-notebook https://github.com/millejoh/emacs-ipython-notebook Seems the best of both worlds! Now, is there a elisp notebook (or is it just emacs)?.

  A lot of the things in the article are supported. You can format text and tables via Markdown, add MathJax equations, etc. Then you can write down code, evaluate it, and it can evaluate to images as well... charts and such. You can optionally export the resulting document to HTML and share it in static form, or just share a link to the notebook. In addition, github supports Jupyter notebooks.

    Both serve a similar purpose, but are not exactly equivalent. I use Org to take notes and write prose. I guess Jupiter could be extended enough to support many features that Org provides... I guess it boils down to having a hierarchical vs sequential document as the base form, really.
    - partycoder 10y ago
      Both are for taking notes (therefore the name Jupyter notebook). Jupyter may already be more featured than org-mode through the kernels it embeds. e.g: SageMath alone is gigantic. Then, if you don't enjoy the web interface you can use it within emacs if so you prefer. https://github.com/millejoh/emacs-ipython-notebook https://github.com/millejoh/emacs-ipython-notebook

Would that be this? https://jupyter.org/ https://jupyter.org/ (Your comment could be substantially improved by pointing to the source, and perhaps explaining why the tool is preferable, in your view.)

  It is a very well known project, I didn't feel the need to introduce it. You can see some demos here: https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/wiki/A-gallery-of-interesting-Jupyter-Notebooks https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/wiki/A-gallery-of-interes... It's free/open source and can embed lots of different technologies: https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/wiki/Jupyter-kernels https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/wiki/Jupyter-kernels I think Jupyter is very powerful, the learning curve is lower, and you can share your documents in an easy way if you need to.
  - baldfat 10y ago
    It is very well known as IPython which is now on referring to the kernel of (Interactive Python). Project Jupyter is the name for the Notebook and it has access to many different kernels and is language agnostic now. Your comment is condescending and not very informative.

      Its official name has been Jupyter for a while now (3 years), since IPython was decoupled from the notebook. Please do not use ad-hominem.

    I can't really compare the learning curves of Jupyter 7 org-mode, but I think org-mode's learning curve can be very easy (a lot of people make the mistake of trying to do everything all at once, rather than just using the things they need as they need them — I've been guilty of this in the past), and since org-mode just operates on simple text files it's extraordinarily easy to share documents.

  There is also https://github.com/gregsexton/ob-ipython https://github.com/gregsexton/ob-ipython which integrates a Jupyter kernel into org-mode's #+BEGIN_SRC/#+END_SRC blocks. It can display the results of the execution of such blocks much like Jupyter Notebook.

Ditto on Asana. My wife and I use Asana to manage our lives... albeit she does most of the tasks (I really need to improve on that. She is so darn productive).
