The hubris of this self declared successor. It’s not even the same team.
Deepnote, a Jupyter alternative, is going open source

Re: Deepnote, a Jupyter alternative, is going open source
#22A lot of the comments on here are too pessimistic. Deepnote has had the single best jupyter interface for years now - unfortunately locked behind a cloud subscription though. Jupyter itself has been stagnant for far too long, and it's much appreciated there's more options coming online that have a modern level of polish.
Marimo is great, but it's good to have competition in the space (especially when both projects are still owned and maintained by VC backed companies).

#23Are there any other people who hate notebooks? Give a plain old script anytime. Run and edit anywhere without extra packages or even a Web browser.
I've found that notebooks are great for ad hoc reporting and analysis scripts. Once you have your quick and dirty script, it is trivial to convert to a notebook and you get a lot for little. Being able to change one cell and rerun just that is a godsend for getting reports "just right", and the "show your work" and visual aspect make them much more consumable and trusted by other people.

#24Oh, and it's Apache 2 licensed, so actually open source and not just pretending for the cred.
Sincerely, nice.

#25I’m not familiar with Deepnote, but I have quite a lot of experience with Jupyter, and if someone were to ask me if there are more modern alternatives I would immediately point them to marimo ( https://marimo.io/ ). For me marimo is already a successor to Jupyter, it has replaced it entirely for me.
How hard would it be to add creatine collaboration to Marimo?

Yup, Marimo seems perfectly gittable and Deepnote looks more of the status quo. > Human-readable format: The .deepnote YAML format replaces .ipynb's messy JSON with clean, version-control and human-friendly structure for projects and notebooks. You can organize multiple notebooks, integrations, and settings into a single .deepnote project for better structure and collaboration. https://marimo.io/blog/python-not-json
Marimo is much better for git than Jupyter. I only wish it had a gittable/reviewable version with output, too.

#27Do people find this sort of writing appealing?
For me, it's cringe to borderline painful to read.

notebook are great when you wanna see the intermediate results and not just the final result (in case last step takes time and you wanna double check the data) or when you just wanna better understand what the code does (yes, you can set up a debugger and debug a script etc but that is just more pain)

Have to say marimo is excellent and is a breath of fresh air compared to Jupyter!

Which one is better, marimo or deepnote?
