Pluto interactive bars using GitHub pages

Tooling Pluto
1

Hello,

I recently came across the template repository which allows you to create a webpage in a similar style to the MIT Computational Thinking Course.

However, as it stands right now, the notebooks are only shown statically, without the possibility to use the sliders that you get in the Computational Thinking Course.

Therefore, I would like to ask if it is possible to use the PlutoSliderServer.jl package to make interactive notebooks hosted in GitHub pages, to allow a similar behaviour to the MIT course.

In principle that’s possible. You have to host a slider server somewhere in the cloud. See Is it possible to use PlutoSliderServer to host github pages with sliders that work? · Discussion #22 · JuliaPluto/PlutoSliderServer.jl · GitHub

There’s also a PR to get this functionality without a running server.

Thank you.

That functionality will be really a really nice addition to Pluto.
