📦 jupyter-positron-server A package for running the Positron Server web IDE as a proxy inside a Jupyter environment. 👤 Isabel Zimmermann 🔗 https://github.com/posit-dev/jupyter-positron-server #pyladies #python #opensource

Neat. Positron now recognizes a pyproject.toml, offers to build an environment with one click using uv 🚀 opensource.posit.co/blog/2026-07...

So how do you help the authors you want to help? - Preorder - Tell one specific person "you'd like this book" — this converts at a far higher rate than anything! - If you're on a team or in a reading group, suggest it there - Request it at your local library! www.drcathicks.com#book
