Yay! I feel like I'm part of history just by watching these videos.

[kamilziemian]

With Julia, all this things feel so easy.

[Amapramaadhy]

Amazing demo! Convinced me to try Julia again.

A quick feedback (hopefully useful) - for screen recordings, terminals with white background is more preferable (e.g your blue fonts were not at all legible). Again thanks for the amazing work

[larrykavounas]

Great job! But please: the "Run" button is so close to the delete button... If I could I would make the delete red, and move the run to the left (and rename it to eval/save). Thanks again

[notnilc]

I'm so jealous of future generations.

Are notebook creators, game-changers usually this soft-spoken and winsome (1:24)?

@The Julia Programming Language Hi, I am a Chinese university student, I want to learn Julia, but my C disk path has Chinese, my user name is Chinese, and then when I download Pluto, it will always be automatically downloaded to the C disk, but my Julia is installed in the D disk, because there is no Chinese path in the d disk, and then when I follow the course later on, in the notebook, even if it's a simple operation, such as opening photos, it doesn't work. Then when I follow the course later, in the notebook, Pluto doesn't work even for very simple operations, such as opening photos. What should I do? Please tell me!
This is driving me

I'm having problems downloading Pluto. When after submitting add Pluto I get this error.
ERROR: SystemError: opening file "C:\\Users\\(my user name No such file or directory

anyone had any luck running pluto from within julia from within the docker container on mac os? i'm having trouble exposing the port. i successfully got it to host but i can't access the localhost. apparently is has something to do with the fact that mac os recognizes the container as a VM and doesn't allow access to it.

I am not sure Pluto works well for Windows. I was trying to do the first assignment, but I ran into an issue with "while" loop, where if you make a coding mistake you cannot abort the code and troubleshoot your code. Pluto is basically not compatible with windows. So I do not understand how it is possible to complete this MIT class with Pluto if you have windows. They need to make more videos to explain how to work in Pluto. I will try to look for those in case they are already posted.

[Shubhamkumar-svty]

I have an error "ERROR: The following package names could not be resolved:
* pluto (not found in project, manifest, or registry)"

[enisten]

Is there a way to make inputs (commands) appear above outputs in Pluto?

[MrFaiqueShakil]

Congratulations...! Julia is officially now gone public...

[QT-ytdb]

why use Julia instead of python? because it is faster?

[sangamesh]

Help me.
Got this error while installing

[renudhadwal]

I get an error when I type using pluto.

[ninadgns]

I'm getting "Illegal Instruction (Core Dumped)" while installing Pluto on Manjaro KDE. What to do?
