Authorea just released a Jupyter "publishing" platform about jose-old HOT 6 CLOSED

This is definitely interesting, but we plan to accept more than notebooks—and I think GitHub's notebook rendering is pretty good.

(plus, there's been some work behind the scenes on the JOSS framework to make it more easily forkable, and it's almost ready!)

Github's rendering will disable any interactive Javascript in the notebooks, which is one downside (but nbviewer doesn't, I think). Here is an example of Authorea's support for interactive figures: https://www.authorea.com/users/1/articles/27167-the-statistical-likelihood-of-steph-curry-s-ridiculous-shooting-streak. Note that Jupyter notebooks are just one of Authorea's supported document types.

Good to hear that JOSS will be easily forkable.

For interactive notebooks, could binder https://mybinder.org/ be used?
IMHO it is a great tool and since it is also integrated with GitHub, it seems to be a good fit.
It may also replace the platform used today for "Try Jupyter!" https://try.jupyter.org/ (see jupyter/try.jupyter.org#21) which would probably boost its popularity.

It could super cool to utilize binder for submissions to JOSE, so folks could experience the interactivity.

There are some new tools that can allow Jupyter notebook authors create web pages that are made "live" by a binder/jupyter backend:

• https://github.com/minrk/thebelab
• https://github.com/SamLau95/nbinteract

Closing this issue, as my original statement is irrelevant since the journal is now live.
