> Also, although being easier, is jupyter doing anything not being done in emacs years ago? While I already think it's worthwhile that you can sidestep emacs' setup and learning curve for uninterested students, you might be interested in how it is already used for collaboration and teaching. One list of examples might be this: https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/wiki/A-gallery-of-interesting-Jupyter-Notebooks https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/wiki/A-gallery-of-interes... If you're teaching math or physics to a bunch of students who know Python and SciPy, I would assume Jupyter notebooks are an amazing way to distribute course material.

Clicking on a few random ones seemed to be broken in the web view, which doesn't bode well ;) I'm sold on the idea though. 20 years ago all our math books came with basic programs in each section, I can't help but think maths and physics would have been much more fun if we'd been able to run them or had something like jupyter. I've been told textbooks don't come with this any more, which seems like a shame now that computing devices are so ubiquitous.
