Oh, that's cool - it's just some javascript that's essentially clicking execute on the selected cells. That makes sense, and hacked up version of this could work fine! Thanks!
If you get this working my cousin teaches elementary school and I'd love to show it to her! Please upload it if you're feeling generous :)

That's why Jupyter support more than 60 languages ( https://github.com/jupyter/jupyter/wiki/Jupyter-kernels ) which language did you had in mind ?
Perhaps a dumb question, but do those languages tend to have wrappers for common Python libraries like Pandas?
I'd really like 1 thing from those articles. I didn't knew what Jupyter was in first place. So please dear authors when I click on your articles I'd like to have a single sentence somewhere on the landing zone where I can easily figure what we're talking about and not having to read entire paragraphs Thanks,
The closest thing to what you're asking for is the first image in the post, which is a screenshot that has this caption: > JupyterLab is an interactive development environment for working with notebooks, code, and data.

I'm using RStudio notebooks heavily in my latest bioinformatics analysis pipeline. They're a great way to produce an HTML report containing code, exposition, results, and plots all in one place. https://github.com/DarwinAwardWinner/CD4-csaw (look at scripts/*.Rmd)
I wrote an article a few months ago on the differences between R Notebooks and Jupyter Notebooks (and why, IMO, R Notebooks are better): http://minimaxir.com/2017/06/r-notebooks/
R Notebooks followed the org-mode model of keeping a simple, revisionable document with code interspersed.

As far as I can see there's no way for a user to set the size of their infrastructure.
Yeah, you can connect your GPU for machine learning, but that seems to be it.

Oh ! Thanks, we'll try to fix that ! BTW we're not a company, but sponsored by a non profit, academics and volunteers mostly.
As someone new to not just Jupyter (and for someone coming from the Microsoft c# world, mind = blown, many kudos)....do you (or anyone else reading) happen to know off the top of your head a particularly well done, information dense (not dumbed down, showing what you can do, but skipping a hand holding explanation, one can go get that elsewhere) notebook that demonstrates a broad range of Pandas & Jupyter capabilitie…

As someone who used Matlab and Mathematica in college, I'm not sure I'd want to have a closed source solution really take off again at this point. While they provided great products and documentation, they also made it much more difficult to share code/visualizations due to restrictive and expensive licensing. Ultimately, I think the ability to share information easily should help spur scientific advancement.
That's all nice but you go to real-world space/robotics/drones etc. shops and they all use Matlab or similar for their scientific computation and validation and treat Jupyter stack as a toy. Similar to telling a photographer to use Linux because there is GIMP and that should be enough for them.
MATLAB has a TON of things that you don't get with Python + Numpy + Scipy. Complicated plots/graphics with interactivity are a pain point in Python compared to MATLAB. Similarly, the debugging capabilities in MATLAB are truly magical compared to a pretty terrible experience on the Python side of things. Even though we deploy software in Python, we are much faster prototyping in MATLAB and deploying finalized algorithms/software to Python than trying to do everything in Python from the get go. MATLAB's JIT is also pretty great and while Numba is pretty great, it still requires more work and can be brittle at times.
At some point I need to drop down to the terminal to run something. I run commands in the terminal I collect some results or collect some info and go back to my notebook to resume my work inside it.
Later I need to look up something in a text file. I open a certain text file. Browse to a certain line number, read that line, maybe edit the text file, and close the text file to go back to my notebook.
Does JupyterLab keep a record of the point in my progress in the notebook when I switched to the terminal or the text file, what I ran in the terminal, and what info was used? If I edited the text file, what was before and after of the text file? In other words, does JupyterLab help with the chronology of workflow events?
If not, I don't see how this is anything other than hundreds of "IDE"s out there.
Notebook format has its own issues, but going back to IDE is not a solution. Offering both notebook and an IDE at the same time and leaving it up to the user to make the best of the combo is not a solution either, unless the offering helps some kind of a way of eliminating the cons of either format.
I'll be teaching a group of nine and ten years olds to code. I'm planning on using Jupyter. What I'd really like to do is make a multiplayer naval game, with each player controlling their ship from their own notebook. Players would start out by running commands like fire(range=400, bearing=120) right from a cell, but would later be able automate their ship - for example, pick the nearest enemy, get the range, and plu…
schedule = set() # (time, function) pairs
while True:
next=min(schedule)
schedule.remove(next)
sleep(next[0] - now())
next[1]()
schedule.add((now() + interval, next[1]))
