Nbviewer (https://nbviewer.org/): very easy to use for smaller jupyter notebook that does not require heavy rendering. Source: over 1 year ago

Nbconvert renders everything exactly as it looks in your notebook app into a read-only HTML version and is what GitHub uses for notebooks. Interactive plots from Bokeh, Holoviews, etc can still work if you trust the JS, and since editing notebooks while showing them during a meeting usually doesn't go well, read-only is probably good enough (eager to hear feedback on this point though). The nice thing is that... Source: over 1 year ago

Just as a heads up, I used plotly to generate a lot of the charts, so you'll need to view it from an nbviewer like nbviewer.org. Source: about 2 years ago

I used a lot of plotly not knowing that Github wouldn't show it, so you'll need notebook viewer like nbviewer.org to see some of the charts. Source: about 2 years ago

The closest Python equivalent to RStudio is the JupyterLab Desktop app[1,2], which I highly recommend. I've entirely switched to using it for teaching, and it is a godsend, since it works the same way across platforms (win/mac/linux), installs its own Python interpreter independent of any system Python the student might have, and even comes with NumPy/SciPy/Pandas/Seaborn/statsmodels already installed, which... - Source: Hacker News / about 1 month ago

Binder - Turn a Git repo into a collection of interactive notebooks. It is a free public service. - Source: dev.to / 3 months ago

I would use https://mybinder.org/ if you can't install anything. It's supported by NumFocus but otherwise runs on donations. You specify requirements in code and they build a docker image from your github repository. I think they should be able to download their notebook and submit it to you - it's been awhile since I used it. But I think they need to have a single person doing the typing. Source: 5 months ago

You can use Binder https://mybinder.org . If the students have Gmail account, try Google Colab. Pretty easy to use. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

Do you have an example of how this works with another tool/language? I don't know if I understood it correctly but maybe you could: - Upload your notebook to Github, then create a url with Binder (part of the jupyter ecosystem) directly to an editing/fiddling playground: https://mybinder.org/ - If by user-local you mean on their own machine, they can clone your repo and run their own jupyterlab to fiddle - If... - Source: Hacker News / 11 months ago
