Juno Connect: Jupyter Client

what is the latest with Juno connect? Is there a roadmap for this? I really enjoy it and it comes in handy bit there‘s no update for some time :-(

Fun to use Juno Connect instead of connecting via the browser

Hi fellows, to be honest, this is the first time that it took me only about 10 seconds of thought to buy the pro version of an app. For any serious data scientist or analyst who want’s to work mobile, this is the only way to go for exploratory data analysis. Thanks for developing this app. I’m in love.

I find the app very helpful to work with notebooks, definitely better than running in the browser. Things like restarting the kernel and re-running all cells even feels a bit quicker than in the browser, and the app manages resizing in split-screen quite well. Interactive plots with callbacks also work, which is cool. Parallel notebooks tabs are not available so far, but I don’t really miss them. A problem for me is the weak support for working with the terminal. I did not find a way to switch between the notebook and the terminal, which means I have to open a new terminal every time I have to use git or want to edit a source file in vim (the latter does not work, see below). I can see running terminals in the “running” tab but I cannot open these running sessions, so they are just lost. My main problem is that the remapped Esc key (Control) does not work in the terminal, so editing a file in vim is not possible, I could not figure out how to switch between input and control mode. Also, the terminal is quite small, it would be nice to have the option to show it in fullscreen. Overall I am quite happy with how the app handles notebooks, but since the terminal is equally important to me, I give only an average rating. With the terminal problems fixed in future updates, I would give it a higher rating.

Have an idea while away from your computer? No problem with this app just access your cloud notebook and try it out directly on your iOS device. It does need some work on the UX but it appears to be a brand new app. One thing I don’t like is how damn long the privacy policy is for an app that should not process any personal data on servers other as those I connect to.

When I press up or down to switch the cells, the field of view doesn‘t catch up quickly enough with the marked cell... So working without touching the screen every2 seconds becomes impossible. Older comment, still valid: „matplotlib.animation .FuncAnimation() for example doesn‘t work. But nice job, keep it up!“

I've now used jupyter for roughly half a year. It has integrated itself deeply into my development habits. Previously, the iPad was a device for taking notes and organizing ideas. With juno, I have the ability to quickly follow up and mock up algorithms on Jupyter. This has brought me a huge increase in productivity.

This awesome app finally allows me to work seamlessly with my remote Jupyter notebook server. I found it very stable and easy to use, really well made, hence 5 stars, but still some improvement requests: Please make the terminal window larger and please add an "Esc" touch button on the screen (or use the language button on the apple iPad keyboard) so that I can use my "CTRL" key for navigating text again.

Basic version didn’t worked

Several months ago I started working a lot with jupyter notebooks. They run on a remote server and basically allow you to do anything on that server for developing python projects plus these very nice notebooks. Juno allows you to edit jupyter notebooks from the iPad in a very awesome way and here they outperform the iPad web experience. But Juno is lacking some important features that you get on the Web: - Terminal connection to the server, very useful e.g. for executing python files or using git - Editing text files with syntax highlighting and a choice of Keymaps (Sublime) - Tabbed view of multiple running Notebooks and open files - Kernels for other Languages (e.g. R, nodeJS) All of them somehow work in the Safari Jupyter experience but not in Juno. And they would make this app a beast for remote python development. I am looking forward to see these features coming, but for now you can only use a portion of jupyters capabilities.
