About Notebook Exec and Gist Exec

Gist exec pairs gists through github.js and the Jupyter architecture to get compute dynamically. Notebookexec (the thing you are looking at) is a trimmed down version which loads notebooks from this webserver and then uses the Jupyter architecture to get compute dynamically. It only supports IPython/Jupyter notebooks.

It runs Jupyter kernels inside of Docker containers, through a temporary notebook system. The frontend exposed here is O'Reilly Media's Thebe.

There is no network access and operations are limited. If you find a bug, report it.

Hosting for the kernels is provided by developer.rackspace.com.
