This repo is not being actively maintained 🙁 In the meantime, I suggest that you look at hydrogen to run code inline in Atom’s text editor, nteract (a new Jupyter notebook client built using Electron, React, Redux, RxJS), Jupyter Notebook, and JupyterLab.

Having said that, nteract is currently extracting its many components into separate packages which will allow them to be reused and assembled to create new apps. When I have the time, I would like to use them to completely refactor this project.

I have this problem also. Is there a way to update the gyp component to work with newer versions of Python?
