Looks amazing. This seems to integrate the absolute best parts of notebooks (interactivity), spreadsheets (reactivity) and plain text coding (versioning).
Spreadsheet programs are honestly amazing. When they were invented, they were several decades ahead of their time imho. Also, I think that one thing that could work very well with Pluto would be exactly a spreadsheet UI element, that is backed by a DataFrame and with support for Julia expressions as formulas.
@@BosonCollider That would be really cool if we could forego entering data in to a spreadsheet and then importing that spreadsheet as a dataframe by just directly having a spreadsheet in a julia session.
At first, I was confused but now I understand. Here are my final thoughts: Pluto is not necessary, but is very very very useful. I am using it from now on. Good work! Goodbye Jupyter, and hello Pluto!
Very interesting! I would be curious about whether there is a nice way of creating programming books with this system. I had trouble finding a good system for writing Julia programming books. I actually used Julia Documenter originally, but I found that the iteration of going back and forth to get some code examples to execute properly when compiling the book was way too slow. I can see this as a faster solution, but you need a practical method being able to tie stuff together into chapters.
Great idea! I have few remarks: Exporting to pdf on ubuntu (firefox) doesn't work very well. I think better option would be saving all cells to pdf because we still have tool to make cell visible or not.
How do you change the working directory? My C drive is full. And set up a config file? This is easy to find for Jupyter, but I can't find anything for Pluto. Also, it keeps telling me to update even after I update from Pluto, then restart. A link to the CSV file would be nice so I could follow along.
2:40 why the voice is not loud and clear? Please remove the noise. i get it that mic may have some problem, but it CAN be improved in the post processing.
first.(data) and last.(data) are all well and good. But what is the general command? If you have a hundred or so variables and you want to plot the fifty fourth, do you write fiftyfourth.(data)?
