.NET Interactive IS .NET UNLEASHED

Project Jupyter is a popular platform for creating interactive notebooks that can be used for data science, documentation, DevOps, and much more.

There are several ways to get started using .NET with Jupyter, including Jupyter Notebook, JupyterLab, and nteract.

• Try sample .NET notebooks online using Binder. This also allows you try out our daily builds, which include preview features of F# 5.
• Install .NET Interactive to create and run .NET notebooks on your machine.
• Share your own .NET notebooks with others online using Binder.
• Use .NET Interactive with nteract
• Use .NET Interactive on Raspberry Pi and pi-top

We have recently introduced the .NET Interactive Notebooks extension for Visual Studio Code Insiders, which adds support for .NET Interactive using the new Visual Studio Code native notebook feature. While we are still in the early stages of this effort, we encourage you to try it out. If you'd like to contribute, you can start here.

You can find additional documentation here.

We provide a number of packages that can be used to write custom extensions for .NET Interactive or to build your own interactive experiences.
