For what it's worth, I love the fact that Jupyter is browser-based.
> It's the entire reason it's so easy to format text / math in a Jupyter notebook. There's Markdown + MathJax for basic interactive formatting, no need to compile or anything. If you need anything more sophisticated (like a box around text, etc.) just throw in a <div style="..."> and it'll automatically show up in the notebook.
> I only need one Chrome window (or more, if I choose) for my entire workspace. I can have tabs for notebooks AND webpages open at the same time, in the same program. I don't need to worry about having dozens of windows open! I also don't need to deal with some developer's idea of a tabbed workspace--Chrome's tab work exactly how I need them to.
Maybe you could get all the same benefits from an Electron app, but people don't quite like those either :).
