Hold on though, it gets better! We haven't even talked about prebuilt workspaces, custom environment images, or self-hosting Gitpod.

Show HN: Marimo – an open-source reactive notebook for Python

Does this allow to run a long running task in the background so that a user can close & reopen the tab and continue seeing all the output that has been produced thus far?
This is currently being worked on in Jupyter: https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/pull/15448

That whole issue feels so stupid.
I quite enjoy jupyter lab otherwise, even if a lot of it is brittle and annoying.

Could you add your details to https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/14625 it seems like a browser specific kssue
How do I create a URL that links from outside of a Jupyter Notebook to a specific cell in the notebook?

This will be possible in JupyterLab 4.0 and Jupyter Notebook 7 to be released in Q2/Q3 this year, see https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/pull/13285
Jupyter Lab install fails without Rust?!

The posted SO is irrelevant. The true answer is that a new dependency included in 3.6 did not have binaries for some platforms. These were now uploaded so after refreshin pip cache you should be good to go. If it still does not work please post details in https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/issues/13920

Replit.com raises $80m in Series B

Yes, Jupyter notebook has used CodeMirror for nearly a decade. The official Jupyter notebook has never used Monaco, but the Google version (colab) uses Monaco in order to very nicely leverage LSP support (similar to VS Code). There is preliminary work under way right now to switch from CodeMirror 5 to CodeMirror 6 in the official Jupyter project, but that's going to be significant work (see https://github.com/jupyterlab/jupyterlab/pull/11638).
It doesn't seem like there is much overlap between Replit and Jupyter notebooks right now, as far as I can tell...
Putting Out the Fire: Where Do We Start With Accessibility in JupyterLab?
1 project | dev.to | 27 May 2021

With the support of a team member with prior experience auditing for accessibility, we pinpointed specific ways in which JupyterLab lacked support for accessibility broken up by WCAG 2.1 standards.
