We use notebooks heavily for onboarding devs & data scientists to Graphistry, and I only see that increasing.

Interestingly, for initial use, we increasingly start teams on their existing internal NB servers, and for new ones, they either start on Jupyter included in their Graphistry AMI or use Google Colab. So, very little outside of our quick start notebook skeletons hits GitHub.

So... How many notebooks are actually out there? Probably an even more interesting growth curve...!

I think it would be cool to run the same analysis on the number of R Notebooks on Github and compare the two.

Aren't Jupyter notebooks R notebooks? Jupyter stands for "Julia, Python, R" I believe

Yeah this is true but sometimes R notebooks also refers to R studio notebooks - https://rmarkdown.rstudio.com/lesson-10.html

But the user is choosing a Jupyter Kernel upon creation and the code is run on either one of the available Kernels. No code mixing within one notebook at the current point.

I did this a while ago on a sampling of the dataset from https://bigquery.cloud.google.com/table/fh-bigquery:github_e..., Python is ~100x that of R.

R users are mostly using RStudio.

I think the file extension scraped on Github is only .ipynb, which is only python notebooks right?
