ANN: scikit-learn gallery now let's you run examples on mybinder.org

The “dev” build of the scikit-learn documentation now has a link to run each of the examples in their gallery on mybinder.org!

For example https://scikit-learn.org/dev/auto_examples/plot_anomaly_comparison.html#sphx-glr-auto-examples-plot-anomaly-comparison-py which has a binder badge at the bottom of the page.

If you have a moment give it a spin and report problems you spot to https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/issues or in this thread.

The scikit-learn team put in a lot of work to make this happen. This required a lot of technical skill and perseverance to pull off in the way that it is now! Behind the simple UI (“just a badge on a webpage”) there is quite a bit of clever technology to turn scripts into notebooks and then pair it with a repo that launches quickly on mybinder.org. If you want to know more about the details checkout https://github.com/scikit-learn/scikit-learn/pull/11221 A thread started in early June … of 2018!
