This might be of some interest to Julians. It appears C++ folks are so desperate to make their language more appealing that they try to emulate Julia.
Sorry, forgot to include the link: Interactive Workflows for C++ with Jupyter | by QuantStack | Jupyter Blog
On second thoughts: the sentence at the top does not quite convey the right sentiment. Let me try again:
It appears C++ folks are desperate to make their language more appealing and they realize they can learn from Julia.

Cling has been around for a while, but using Jupyter does make C++ more friendly to newbies.
Nice one However, I believe that they have been doing things like this to make the language more appealing. Spoiler alert from cppreference.com:
Additional execution policies may be provided by a standard library implementation (possible future additions may include std::parallel::cuda and std::parallel::opencl)
To me, being able to use C++ in Jupyter is nowhere close to learning a single language and using its language constructs and standard library to easily parallelize your code (without needing to learn opencl
, openmp
, cuda
, or even openmpi
), when it comes to me loving the language
