After that we loved the project (and the team) so much that we donated a $100,000 for furthering development. They used the funds to hire a dev & help improve the Jupyter for all platforms.
Since then we've put Jupyter in Azure ML studio which combines a drag/drop ML canvas with that of a notebook. You can use it to analyze your data / build models /deploy to Azure.
As an offshoot of the above project, we wanted to give something back to the community, so we figured we'd instantiate it as a separate notebook-centric offering for dabblers, students, faculty, demoers, webinar/seminar speakers, etc.
And by "we", I mean a small group in Microsoft who cooked up the idea - if it turns out to be useful, we'll keep it going. If it's not, we'll shut it off. So far thought it looks like it's hit a chord - thousands of notebooks have been created just in the past month. Various schools are using it to teach cs101, eng101 courses, people are using it to demo their products/services (an executable doc page vs a static one), ...
Beyond this initial offering, we hope to add a suite of features both around and inside Jupyter. For example, we hope to be working w the core team to add debugging/profiling support soon. We also hope that the VSCode editor will be integrated for the JupyterLab environment. We'd love to hear your ideas!
Our 1st interaction with the awesome Jupyter team was enabling it in Visual Studio / Python:
