LiveJS

A Jupyter kernel for JavaScript that executes code directly in your web app.

• Use this kernel for quick interactive feedback by running snippets of JavaScript within your web app and viewing the results from Jupyter.
• Written from scratch with the kernel hosted from Python.
• No JavaScript dependencies. No NodeJS.

Note: This project is in very early development and may not have a smooth user experience.
