Maybe it's a silly question, but do you think that putting a small message at the start or in the corner saying it's computer-generated would help or hurt? I personally would feel it is less manipulative and think of it higher.. b

I'm following hyperscript's development keenly :). I've considered putting together a small hyperscript plugin for Starboard Notebook. Often one simply wants to put together a quick interface with some interactivity, together

This looks great, I would love to give it a try (but I only have an Android phone).

Thank you for taking the time to explain :) I completely see that this will break existing code, but I don't see how this is different from the behavior of Go (where the setTimeout code would be something in a different goroutine) or P

You are right that it's a terrible idea (I hope it was clear from the article that it's an experiment and should stay that way), but could you help me understand why this is fundamentally broken? I would say that by using setInter

That's right. And it also makes every function async. Literal expressions are not awaited - a tiny optimization ;)

As someone building an in-browser notebook I have a lot of opinions on notebook environments. Notebooks serve different purposes, sometimes the notebook itself is the end-goal because the author is creating an interactive tutorial or explai

I wasn't sure whether I was going to comment, but this kind of comment is rather unhelpful and poor form. Some may prefer not to have a (mock) notebook runtime in their application for good reason that has nothing to do with their skil

Very cool, I'm building something similar (with a larger scope) [0] (it also has one-file exports, but it does load stuff from a CDN so it's not as contained to a single file as this project is.) If you're looking for next st

I'm building Starboard, https://starboard.gg , maybe that fits your needs? It runs in the browser itself and is open source.

I think the main usecase for Python in the browser using Pyodide is to enable scientific computing and visualization in the browser, and also as a way to ship small Python applications to those that don't have Python installed (e.g. dr

If you want to play with Pyodide in a web notebook you can try Starboard [1][2]. A sibling comment introduces JupyterLite and Brython, which are Jupyter-but-in-the-browser, whereas with Starboard I'm trying to create what Jupyter would

The host-it-yourself easiest method is to use starboard-wrap [0], it provides a custom HTML element that wraps the sandboxed iframe. Documentation is a bit lacking, but I'm happy to help out. It should work in any framework. Alternativ

Yes, this is Javascript. Or well, at least it's web (JS+HTML+CSS). The difference between this and Jupyter (which I assume you may be familiar with) is that this doesn't talk to a backend server. Most other notebooks do (Jupyter,

I am building something similar [0] (think Jupyter for the web, without the Observable black box, supporting clientside Python), also to scratch my own itch. I think you need to solve a problem directly, instead of being "a new tool th

I'm building Starboard [0][1] which I believe will popularize literate programming on the web. It makes making interactive educational content, simple web apps, and documentation 10 times easier. Think Jupyter Notebook but built for th

If anybody is looking for a free alternative that just works, I'm using [1] for a demo on my product's homepage [2]. I suppose it is a bit different in scope though (updated daily instead of near realtime). [1]: https:/&#x2F

I'm really biased as I am building it myself: Starboard Notebook puts literate programming into the browser without a lot of magic. It's amazing what browsers can do these days without any build step! [0]: https://starb

I agree that Nano has potential to actually be a currency, but does it actually matter? Those that buy a cryptocurrency hoping that it will increase in value 100-fold are not likely to actually use it to buy pizza. What it needs is actual a

It's just a landing page you are looking at for which I wanted to put down some numbers. The product [1] is very much pay-per-use (per e-mail sent), so the number shown here is more of a minimum monthly charge. That said, I will probab
