Warning

Most of the documentation was written prior to version 0.5 and needs to be updated. This work has now started for version 0.7 and we aim to have it completed before version 0.8 is available.

Google’s colab

One can also use Google Colab notebooks. However, the following should be noted:

  1. friendly must be installed using !pip install friendly.

  2. As for Jupyter notebooks, from friendly.jupyter import * must be used.

  3. The colour support is not as good as is the case for Jupyter notebooks.

Here are some sample outputs:

_images/colab-jupyter.png _images/colab-jupyter2.png _images/colab-jupyter3.png

There is also a dark theme available.

Unfortunately, the default gives rise to some unreadable content. Switching to using the 'dark' formatter does improve the situation.

Specifying a background colour helps to blend in the result.
