See whether Jupyter Notebooks solution is worth it

divilian opened this issue · 3 comments

Create a Notebooks version of SPECnet and host it on caladan. See whether @venkatachalapathy, @IngenuityArts, and others find it usable. If so, spawn other issues to flesh this out, including:

  • Make a multi-user version (JupyterHub).
  • Encapsulate Julia code in a module (to avoid maintenance issues with having two versions of the sim, one in .jl and the other in .ipynb).
  • Add interactive widgets and such to help the non-coders analyze the sim.

Do some experiments on Stephen's SPECnet notebook in Jupyter to see how it works, how easy to modify or break, etc.

We've decided this is indeed worth it.

The second bullet item, above (encapsulate Julia code in a module) is now complete.

Spawning additional issues (#31, #32), and closing this more general one.
