Pluto.jl on Ubuntu 24.04

Overview

Pluto is a reactive notebook for the Julia programming language. Where a traditional notebook remembers whatever you ran in whatever order, Pluto builds a dependency graph of your cells: when you change a value, every cell that uses it re-runs immediately and automatically, and when you delete a cell its variables disappear too. The result is a notebook with no hidden state, that always reflects the code in front of you, and that another person can open and reproduce exactly. Cells can hold ordinary Julia code, Markdown and interactive widgets, so a notebook doubles as a live document or a small dashboard.

Each notebook is a plain Julia file, so it reads as normal source code and works with version control, and Pluto manages the package environment inside the notebook so the same file installs its own dependencies on someone else's machine. It suits data analysis, teaching and interactive exploration, scientific and numerical computing, and building small explorable explanations where readers drag a slider and watch the results update live.

Common uses

• Reproducible data analysis and interactive exploration in Julia
• Teaching and live explorable documents with widgets and sliders
• Scientific and numerical computing notebooks with no hidden state
