This repository contains the source files for a JupyterLite environment, providing our "Schnupperlernende" (trial learners) with a convenient place to explore Python.
The JupyterLite site is hosted as a static site with GitHub Pages and can be accessed through the following links:
- Full URL: https://sebi364.github.io/schnupperlehre/lab/index.html
- Shortened URL: t.ly/jgXXZ
We have made several changes to the default JupyterLite interface to prevent users from "breaking" the exercise by clicking on "more advanced" features. These changes can be found in settings-override.json and are applied to the site during the build process.
Because JupyterLite runs everything inside a user's browser, I've encountered several limitations while writing the exercises:
input()doesn't work normally (see this issue for more details)- Loading times: The Python kernel needs a couple seconds to start; when running a piece of code for the first time
The exercises on the site are not intended to provide a complete course on Python. They are designed to give a short introduction and are accompanied by a matching presentation.
