Handy Dandy Notebook - VS Code

Execute cells in bash, JavaScript, TypeScript, Ruby, or Python.

Provides the command: New Handy Dandy Notebook to open a new untitled notebook. Also opens .hdnb files by default, and opens .md files via the View: Reopen Editor With... option.

How It Works

Unlike some notebook implementations, the Handy Dandy Notebook does not share any state across cells. This means each time you execute a cell, it runs in a brand new context, totally isolated from the rest of the cells.

Cells support a {{auth:github}} token which will be replaced with a github token with repo scope at time of execution.

Config
