[FIXED] A simple way to view ipython notebook

Issue

I am really new to IPython/Jupyter notebook. I just created one notebook (.ipynb) and I want to share it on my webpage. Specifically, I want to add a link, and when people click it, it will open a new "webpage" where they can "view" my code and results.

Note: I cannot use github, it is a huge pain for me.

I tried nbviewer (http://nbviewer.jupyter.org/). It has several options but only one of them (url) is not related to github/gist. So, in order to have an URL for my file, I uploaded it to google drive, and got a public link for the file. On the other hand, when I put that link to nbviewer (as url to my file), it says "there is no file in this url". On the other hand, I know the link works, because when I put it on browser, it directs me to download the .ipynb file.

I appreciate your help.

Thanks, J.

Solution

There appears to be limited non-GitHub options for sharing notebooks. You can still share a link directly from Google's colaboratory. This will allow you to:

• Upload your file
• Share the link with various permissions

Any Google user can view (and optionally edit) your notebook.
