FloatingTableView is a cool package for the console, but it doesn’t seem to work within a Jupyter Notebook (either using Jupytern or VSCode). Is there any way to get it working, or any alternatives for Notebook?
Thanks for any help - this would be really handy for my students

What is the error? I just tried getting it to work in a Jupyter Notebook and it worked fine.

Thanks - it was inside VSCode’s implementation of Jupyter Notebooks
`browse(df)`

Can you please try opening up a Blink window by itself?
```julia
julia> using Blink
julia> w = Window() # Open a new window
Blink.AtomShell.Window(...)
julia> body!(w, "Hello World") # Set the body content
julia> loadurl(w, "http://julialang.org") # Load a web page
```

Yes, the Blink window was problematic as well.
I just came across something seems I need to run
```julia
python3 -m pip install --upgrade webio_jupyter_extension
```
or Conda equivalent.

The problem lies with Blink, then. See some docs [here](https://github.com/JuliaGizmos/Blink.jl#issues--caveats). Hopefully that isn’t your problem because that would be too much configuration for your students.

Hi. Thanks. What I was hoping for was something like exists in R where table editing of variables via a popout window is really quick and easy. What I have decided to do instead for now is use VSCode’s CSV editor to load/save csv files of DataFrames and use the CSV option to load them in/out of Julia.
A bit clunky, but it works.

Just as a note, this is probably bad practice and should be discouraged. For reproducibility, a;l changes should be done in the code and the raw data should be left “raw”.
