Does someone know how to get started building a plugin for Google docs? My dream: I’d like to be able to add a “paragraph” to a word processor document. This “paragraph” would contain code (like a notebook cell) that I can run, then we show the output in the document. Conceptually the UI would be …

It looks like https://github.com/gsuitedevs/apps-script-samples/tree/master/docs might be a place to get started with examples.

I think that Stencila has a Google Docs integration for interactive Stencila kernels coming soon, though it’s not really a “Jupyter” thing, more like a specific Stencila product

Sounds like it is possible to do then, we just have to find out how :slight_smile:

I looked into this about 2 years ago and it wasn’t possible. There is no plugin or extension type for Google Docs to embed custom content. I just looked at https://developers.google.com/apps-script/guides/docs and it looks like you edit a doc programmatically, add menus/dialogs/sidebars, and and res…

[image] gnestor: then I wouldn’t have spent hundreds of hours working on my “Dynamic Docs” POC that is like a paired-down Google Docs (e.g. Notion or Dropbox Paper) with Jupyter cells powered by the browser and Binder! Got a link? :slightly_smiling_face: I don’t think I’ve seen that!

[image] labarba: I’m curious why you think this is needed? A lot more people use something like Google docs/Word than Jupyter. Giving them an easy and low risk way to try out going beyond copy&pasting screenshots of figures would be cool. I am also sure that after a bit of time using it they’…

Limitation with our approach compared to what you’re looking to do is that it just supports a standalone versions of Word - not Word Online, or Google Docs. We’ve had a lot of people ask us about extending it online, so if that’s something you pursue let me know how I can help. Your motivation for…

I can see this need too, amongst colleagues. There is a number of analysts that are doing data analysis still from spreadsheets. But they want to be able to collaborate on work done with jupyter by adding comments to analysis… In theory, people could use git for commentary. But even that pushes adop…
