LiveBook is meant to be the Elixir version of notebooks with a focus on:

  • Real-time collaboration
  • Live features - a cell can be alive and stream values as it runs

The biggest challenges we have ahead of us is to address the drawbacks from Jupyter notebooks:

  • Do not depend on evaluation order. We need to attach some ordering to cells, either explicitly or implicitly.
  • How to persist the notebooks? JSON is not executable, not friendly to version control software.

Other considerations:

  • Can the notebooks be executable or even deployed to prod?
  • Security: how can we sandbox the execution?
