In ipython notebook, how can I achieve a "single cell" style that hides all source code and edit buttons?

Question

I've just watched the pycon 2014 keynote by Fernando Pérez

He mentions that ipython notebook can have "non-notebook looking", "single cell" style, see the snapshot below or watch it in in this video http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2NSbuKFYyvc, at around 25:22

However after 30 minutes of googling, I can't find any resources related to this feature.

Anyone can help out?

Answer 1

Fernando's example appears to come directly from minrk's repository on git hub. The code is include there in full, although the documentation is rather thin.

I was able to get this running on my Windows 7 PC using IPython 2.0 and executing the following commands from a command window:

git clone https://github.com/minrk/singlecell.git
cd singlecell
python singlecell.py

These commands start a Tornado server at http://127.0.0.1:8000. Open the application in a browser by typing that URL in the address address bar. I saw exactly what Fernando showed on screen in his demo.

I hope that helps - you should be able to figure it out in detail by studying the code.

1) upgrade to ipython 2.0
2) install ipython slideshow support(availble in ipython git repo)
3) slider control from from => IPython.html.widgets import interactive
