Love that this is local. I've messed around trying to get Node on Jupyter with custom kernels, but never got close to a working setup with TypeScript.

Two features would be huge:

1. Web cells for intermixing UI components alongside NodeJS cells. Would be cool if there was a bridge API to call code in the Node cells as well.

2. VSCode extension to render this all in there directly.

If you don't mind using Deno instead of Node, it's integrated Jupyter Kernel makes it really easy: https://docs.deno.com/runtime/manual/tools/jupyter/

Oh, that's really interesting. I still use Node for everything and haven't really given Deno a shot, but I'm someone who prefers to stay away from bleeding edge things until they become battle-tested.

But with recent NodeJS compatibility changes, this may be really cool for a lot of use-cases.
