hard no for me WRT positron... i managed a university's jupyterhub deployments for a while and we had faculty CLAMORING for this vs. Rstudio.
the problem? the fact that you need a license to use. it's not OSS. you are not allowed to deploy this on a hosted/managed system:
```
Limitations
You may not provide the software to third parties as a hosted or managed
service, where the service provides users with access to any substantial set of
the features or functionality of the software.
You may not move, change, disable, or circumvent the license key functionality
in the software, and you may not remove or obscure any functionality in the
software that is protected by the license key.
You may not alter, remove, or obscure any licensing, copyright, or other notices
of the licensor in the software. Any use of the licensor's trademarks is subject
to applicable law.

- hadley 1y agoWe're working on this! Education is really important to us so this is 100% a problem we want to solve.
- sharifhsn 1y agoHey, my university is setting up a JupyterHub deployment right now, and my coworker is in charge of it. Do you mind elaborating more on how you went about it, best practices, etc.?
- insane_dreamer 1y agoThey probably should have said “paying users”; then univ labs could use it but some commercial company couldn’t just host it and charge for it
- hadley 1y agoStudents also pay :)
- insane_dreamer 1y agothey don't pay the lab for use of the software
