Multiple people working in Python notebooks?


I was part of a very cool data for good project this past weekend where hundreds of volunteers worked on visualizations and analyzing open data around specific questions.

This also meant everyone using their own Python notebooks, pushing their ETL and visualization code to Github, and then dropping a picture of the visualization output into a Goole doc or the shared Slack channel for everyone to see..

Is there a better way to handle this?

There are some collaborative notebook tools (Google Colab, CoCalc) but if you're dealing with hundreds of people working on their own notebooks, you'd likely still want a separate notebook for each individual... housed in a single folder.

In this case, you'd still have no good way to "see" what others had built without clicking into each notebook... and I think that's the problem that you're alluding to.
