starboard-notebook is an in-browser literate notebook runtime that enables users to write, edit, and interact with computational documents directly in the browser without needing a traditional backend notebook server. The project is built around an innovative runtime that interprets code cells and markdown in a way that feels fluid and interactive, often bridging concepts from classical notebook tools with modern web technologies. Starboard notebooks support multiple languages, and the tooling emphasizes portability, making notebooks viewable and executable even on mobile devices or static sites. Because the runtime runs entirely inside the browser, it removes installation barriers and provides a sandboxed environment for exploration, learning, and sharing. The project plays into a larger ecosystem of in-browser computation and literate programming tools, helping users publish interactive content on the web with minimal setup.
