Jupyter Collaboration has a history slider

  • Jupyter is really dominating now at university campus sites. I see it used for almost every course (at the least those that require data analysis via python).

  • This Jupyter (CRDT-based) extension appears to solve the BIGGEST HEADACHE I personally have with Jupyter(lab). Jupyter notebooks allow me to hack code/parameters too fluently, and I can't recover earlier positions in code/parameter space that produced interesting results.

    Jupytext and git goes some way towards fixing that, but I don't save to git after every cut/paste of a parameter. This extension is effortless.

    As a bonus, the extension appears to allow SubEthaEdit/GoogleDocs style collaboration too. (I haven't personally used that yet.)

    Check it out.

  • Off topic: Tried to open the link and there seems to be Medium global outage. Have not seen that before.

  • Both collaboration and history are killer features. I'm going to have to try this out at work!
