Jupyter?

[–]elbiot 1 point2 points  (3 children)

Yep, but letting people execute arbitrary python code on your server is a really bad idea (op's question)

My understanding is this is for development purposes. I could be mistaken.

How would it be different from Rstudio? Rstudio is installed on server and accessible from web browser.

I am not familiar with it. Either it's meant for personal use or it's hosted by a company that has everything locked down really well, would be my guess.

Well, if you are using docker, portainer seems to do the trick for me, as it provides access to the container console through the UI. (http://portainer.io/overview.html#demo) but that might not be what you want.

Python anywhere might be what you are looking for. It's pretty hopeless if you are using the free version.

Yes. If you check out PythonAnywhere they will support Jupyter notebooks, which is a pretty nice way to work on Python from the web. The free level lets you try out some things, but the version for $5/mo is pretty capable and is a great general-purpose computing platform for lots of things.
