Observable and Creative Coding

Amazingly cool SVGs. Checked Obeservable and wondering about their pitch. I do quite some data exploration and visualization using jupyter, yet given my data is sensitive (privacy / sovereignty of the users/ study participants), it's impossible to upload them onto a server.

Seems their platform is nice for playing, yet unable to use for professional purposes?

If you want to share results from your Python analysis (such as visualizations, tables, datasets, files), check out what we're doing at Datapane. It's a Python framework and API for building and sharing reports.

Some people use it to build text-heavy reports which are more like observable notebooks [1], and some folks use it for more grid-like dashboards [2].

We have private support for hosting - or you can just export and self-host your HTML report using our open source library: https://github.com/datapane/datapane

You can give Starboard Notebook [0] a shot (a tool I'm building). It doesn't have reactivity which is as powerful as Observable - it's closer to normal web programming.

Here's an example notebook that shows p5.js use (with Python interop as a bonus): https://starboard.gg/nb/n3DYopT

It supports local or self-hosted editing and viewing [1] and is all open source.

I have tried solving that problem https://observablehq.com/@tomlarkworthy/secret-manager

EDIT: actually you probably want https://observablehq.com/@tmcw/using-observable-with-a-local... which allows you to retreive data from localhost

On Observable, you have the option to keep notebooks and the data inside private.

What professional purposes are you imagining?
