Hello ! amazing :slight_smile: one question: let say I finish my awesome notebook with a nice viz as result. is there a way to save a .js file with the code ?

Folks, as you may have seen, we launched embeddable Observable notebooks this morning, and open-sourced the notebook-runtime . On your published (or shared) notebooks, you’ll now find “ES module” and “Download tarball” links, which provide the notebook compiled down to an ES module, with all of its …

@GordonSmith That error is not related to this thread. The issue is that the library you are requiring (the HPCC Visualization Framework tries to access localStorage within your notebook, and because notebooks are sandboxed, you get a security error. Notebooks currently share a domain ( static.obser…

Thanks for the info. I didn’t think that library accessed local storage (I am the author) but a dependency might be. Am also surprised its being accessed during the require as these modules should be “pure”. (found it - loaded each dependency one at a time…)

Glad to hear you are planning to open source the runtime! I think this is an important step in order to qualify for open scientific workflows. As far as export is concerned: We are working on a spec (+ tools) for language-agnostic reproducible publications. The overall goal is to enable submissions…

you can save your notebook as a JavaScript bundle and run it outside of Observable @mbostock does “bundle” here mean something more like a compiled executable, a source file, or maybe a bit of both? I’ve been wondering about (some day) being able to hack on scripts/tools that could consume or pr…

I don’t exactly understand where Observable is saving/hosting notebooks? Are they versioned / can we see edit history? Are they in a git repository (or can they be put into one)? Is there a file format for notebooks (or maybe a multi-plain-text-file-in-a-directory format)? Maybe this should be a ne…

watched your video and checked webpage. Indeed Observable looks like the right solution for literate publication, particularly when import/export, open source runtime etc is available. looks like that would also allow to engage Observable’s runtime from a gh-page.

[image] mbostock: We’re also looking at implementing Service Workers so that you can use Observable entirely offline. this sounds fantastic! I guess this would also allow us to develop observable notebooks as gh-pages.

This would really awesome. Talking use cases, I think it would be benificial to enable at least two kinds of exports: not just (1) a javascript bundle with all the newest javascript bundling details that modern web developers are into, for coders, but also (2) a ‘immediately usable blog-post’ kind o…

Thank you for all of your great work!!! I found Observable when I was looking for a solution to integrate d3.js into tiddlywiki5 for its comfortable UI and standalone notebook style. So, question for the Wizards: is it a totally crazy idea trying to integrate the two system? I mean Observable and …

+1 Import/export a notebook would work for me as well, it is hard to work without version control.

View-only mode?
