Use Cases#
The Demo#
I built a cool Binder (and even included
?urlpath=lab/tree/tutorial.ipynb
to open a notebook) to showcase my library, but when visitors get to their Binder, they still have to read a notebook andshift+enter
their way through my example to see the plot at the end.
A starter can increase engagement by:
creating personalized content
running JupyterLab commands on the users behalf, including the mighty
Run All Cells
launching a starter directly, with a Starter Tree URL
The Chore#
When my scientists start a new experiment they hope will become reproducible research, they start a new folder that contains a notebook, a spreadsheet and a few other artifacts. Sometimes they don’t do it… quite right.
A starter can enhance reproducibility by:
automating boring chores
standardizing file names
