==What is it
Beaker notebook is a cloud-based notebook service that can handle a huge variety of different languages: https://pub.beakernotebook.com/
It is of interest to us because we can run Java code in a notebook - perfect for lecture notes.
Finding out about it
Found out about the Beaker notebook at a link talking about various notebook software
- Jupyter Notebook
- Apache Zepplin
- Beaker Notebook
The thing that caught my eye was that it can run Java.
(Zepplin is IMPLEMENTED in Java, but (incredibly) there was no actual explicit statement that you could run Java code in Zeplin.)
