Mercury – Turn Python Notebooks to Web Apps
Hi! We're Piotr and Aleksandra, founders of Mercury (https://RunMercury.com), an open source framework for converting Jupyter Notebooks to Web Apps. You can turn Python notebook into interactive web app, static website, presentation, report or dashboard and share it online with non-technical users. You can self-host Mercury or use our hosting service (coming soon!). Our GitHub: https://github.com/mljar/mercury Sharing Python notebooks is challenging.

What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
Hi! We're Piotr and Aleksandra, founders of Mercury (https://RunMercury.com), an open source framework for converting Jupyter Notebooks to Web Apps. You can turn Python notebook into interactive web app, static website, presentation, report or dashboard and share it online with non-technical users. You can self-host Mercury or use our hosting service (coming soon!). Our GitHub: https://github.com/mljar/mercury Sharing Python notebooks is challenging. You can't send notebook directly to non-technical stakeholders. You need to copy-paste results/charts into Word/PowerPoint or rewrite notebook to web framework. Mercury converts notebook to web app. User can execute cells but can't edit them. Mercury offers set of widgets that can be added to the notebook. When serving notebook with Mercury, widget change triggers automatic re-execution of cells. Not all cells are re-executed, only cells with widget definition and below, so you can cache results from previous cells execution (loading large dataset or model). Mercury comes with handy feautures to make sharing easy: - decide to hide or show notebook's code, - add authentication to notebooks, so only selected users can view them, - export final notebook to PDF or HTML file, - all to create output files in notebook, and make them downloadable, - share multiple notebooks on one Site. How does Mercury differ from existing solutions? - it was desinged for notebooks, it offers simple re-execution of cells after widget update, - it has built-in authentication. Mercury is available on AGPLv3. We would like to offer a hosting service, to make deployment very easy (just upload notebook to have website). We offer commercial license for companies looking for private forks and dedicated support. We’d love to hear from the HN community about this framework!

Mercury is a perfect tool to share your Python notebooks with non-programmers. - You can turn your notebook into web app. - You can add interactive widgets to your notebook by defining the YAML header. Your users can change the input and execute the notebook. - You can hide your code to not scare your (non-coding) collaborators. - Users can interact with notebook and save they results. - You can share notebook as a web app with multiple users - they don't overwrite original notebook.

- KAKyso – an easy way to share Jupyter notebooks2017 · ▲117
Hi HN, We're the founders of https://kyso.io We want to make it really easy to share data-science within teams, and we've started with Jupyter notebooks. We render the notebooks really nicely, so you can embed interactive visualisations like Bokeh, and Plotly plots. Another nice thing is we allow you to hide the code for non-technical readers, so you basically get a beautiful data blog. Look at https://kyso.io/laura/ for some examples. We really want to hear your feedback, let us know what you think!

I'm a big fan of the BBC podcast In Our Time -- and (like most people) I've been playing with the OpenAI APIs. In Our Time has almost 1,000 episodes on everything from Cleopatra to the evolution of teeth to plasma physics, all still available, so it's my starting point to learn about most topics. But it's not well organised. So here are the episodes sorted by library code. It's fun to explore. Web scraping is usually pretty tedious, but I found that I could send the minimised HTML to GPT-3 and get (almost) perfect JSON back: the prompt includes the Typescript definition. At the same time I…
