Resuming the project

[ajasja]

Now that the "big split" is over, do you think this project is worth resuming?
nteract is not yet stable enough yet, and is rewriting the javascript side, so there are some differences.

I've been thinking of it but right now I don't have time. I think there are similar efforts to wrap Jupiterlab, which is the next generation of jupyter. I'd like to give it a go anyway - I feel that some of the other attempts out there (like nteract) are a bit over engineered when all I want is to get rid of excess browser UI (and possibly to launch the server without opening a separate terminal window). I'm currently using Nativefier (https://github.com/jiahaog/nativefier) to generate a really 'dumb' app that simply opens localhost:8888 in a window with no controls. It works surprisingly well, obviously it's completly non-configurable and has a few annoying bugs but it does the job of displaying Jupyter in a minimalist window - really helpful when working on a smaller laptop screen. I'd like to work on this approach later by adding the launching interface from ipython desktop, however I'd want to completly re-write that part (it currently uses AngularJS which is super overkill and also causes its own problems).
