Hello 🙂  
I’m a newbie at jupyterhub and API.

I want to make web-service using JupyterHub with kubernetes like kaggle web page.  
After you log in, you can choose menu such as “guide for user”, “data-storage”, “notebook” and “Q&A”.

If you select data-storage, you can download uploaded data. Or if you select notebook, you should select docker image for using and we make single-user notebook by jupyterhub.

Since I have custom auth-system, I just want to use jupyterhub for allocating individual user pod.  
So, is it possible to do above things for using JupyterHub API ?
