Ask HN: Tools/Solution for Teaching Python in a BYOD Environment

#1
Hi HN,

I'm going to host a Python workshop for beginners (read: people who had no contact with programming whatsoever). The workshop will be held in a BYOD environment and I have next to no control over the devices of the participants. While I can give the prior instructions, both their technical knowledge and the amount of options will limit the amount of work (e.g. installing Anaconda) I can put on them. Hence, I thought of using some notebook solution (e.g. Jupyter Hub), but I haven't really figured it out.

TL; DR: Has anyone found a viable solution for this kind of scenario that is free (more or less) and somewhat painless for both me and the participants?

Thanks!
