[GAP Forum] Workshop announcement: GAP-Jupyter-Workshop

[Sebastian Gutsche]

Dear all,

many new technologies for interactive documents, such as the GAP native
Jupyter Kernel (https://github.com/gap-packages/JupyterKernel), MyBinder
(https://mybinder.org/), ThebeLab (https://minrk.github.io/thebelab/)
have been developed recently.

We would like to organise a workshop to bring together people who are
developing or using these technologies, and people who want to use them.
The whole workshop will focus on live structured documents in GAP, and
topics include (but are not limited to):

* The GAP JupyterKernel
* Javascript-Visualizations using GAP and Jupyter
* Using Thebe for interactive GAP manuals
* Developing teaching materials with GAP and Jupyter, and publishing
them using MyBinder
* Writing academic publications using MyBinder and Docker images, to
make all computational results and all examples fully and easily
reproducible.

We want to use the workshop to collect ideas, start work on projects,
provide tutorials for use cases, etc.

The workshop will most likely take place in St Andrews, possible dates
are March 19-23 or March 26-30. To choose a date, we have created a
foodle (https://terminplaner2.dfn.de/foodle/GAP-Jupyter-Workshop-59f86).
The poll will be open until November 12.

If you are interested in the workshop, please participate in the foodle.

More information is coming soon.

Best regards,
Markus Pfeiffer & Sebastian Gutsche
