Pluto solves¹ many of these problems, but it’s Julia only. Most importantly:
- cells are linked through a dependency graph, so the output you see is independent of the order in which the cells appear;
- each notebook is backed by a plain Julia module, so you can use version control, edit in a real editor instead of only in the browser, and import other notebooks;
- You can create interaction² using HTML inputs, Julia wrappers over those, or go crazy with your own custom JavaScript controls;
- It’s easy to embed LaTeX into the MarkDown, and you can use HTML, so any hyperlinking works.
