Features

Featues of hydrogen & hydrogen-next:

• Execute a line, selection, or block at a time.
• Rich media support for plots, images, and video.
• Watch expressions let you keep track of variables and re-run snippets after every change.
• Completions from the running kernel, just like autocomplete in the Chrome dev tools.
• Code can be inspected to show useful information provided by the running kernel.
• One kernel per language (so you can run snippets from several files, all in the same namespace).
• Interrupt or restart the kernel if anything goes wrong.
• Use a custom kernel connection (for example to run code inside Docker), read more in the "Custom kernel connection (inside Docker)" section.
