Carnets - Jupyter
reviews and complaints

I am trying to solve a Pyomo model. I was able to install and run Pyomo successfully.

However, when I go to solve my model I cannot install the glpk solver. Any recommendations on how to do this?

Sometimes it will not recognize imported modules. You can import ‘pandas’ but not ‘pandas’ as ‘pd’ and even then ‘pandas’ may or may not be recognized. It is a hit or miss but it is great when it works

Almost always during a session will carnets begin to duplicate and create new lines for every character you type. Only reliable fix is to restart app or delete the new line for EVERY character you type.

I always thought we can’t code on iPad offline until I found this amazing app! Definitely love it! One less reason to bring my heavy old computer everywhere!
So happy! Thank you so much brilliant developer!

this is the best coding app for ipad. It works just the same as jupyter notebook on my laptop. however, it would be the very best if it supports pytorch. is there any future plan of supporting pytorch on this app?

I love the app, but it broke with iOS15 and the iPad keyboard. Returns no longer work for the keyboard when entering code. I can switch to the manual on-screen keyboard, but that is pretty clumsy, and that keyboard disappears whenever I type on the physical keyboard.

This app is fantastic! I definitely recommend it. It is definitely helping with learning Python. Though every time I try to draw something with turtle package, it says it couldn’t find it. It always says there’s something wrong with import turtle. Will you please look into this?

I downloaded this app because I need to code on python in my machine learning class. However no matter how I tried I was not able to import sklearn package here, therefore it’s totally useless. Since I believe many people use python to do machine learning, i hope this can be included.

Dear developer, fantastic job and sincere thank you. Quick question: for iPad is there an easy way to read (like pd.read(‘.xlsx’)) a file from the iPad? I’m uncertain how to exactly pinpoint the correct path, even when the file is located in the Carnet root folder. Thank you.

Best,

Ryan

It’s such an amazing app. Never imagined I could do some python practice on ipad so easily. Now I regret much less about buying an iPad Pro. Just one minor suggestion about a small problem I encountered: scipy and seaborn packages cannot be installed successfully. Would it be possible to get it fixed?

About 1/3 of the display isn't used because of the left and right unused columns. Please add a setting that allows you to toggle streching all the way to the right and left.

Similarly, please add a toggle that allows minimum-text size. Ive figured out a way to change the size for the code itself, but the output texts for things like tables is still too small to be comfortable.

Lastly, please add an option to Automatically load the files from the directory the notebook is opened from. Its super annoying to have to do it manually each time.

Otherwise, this is great. Those three would really fix all the annoyance that i currently notice.

I really wish there was an option to fill in the ipad screen. When using landscape mode, there is considerable space to left and right that aren't being used, this combined with text being small (without any option to resize), makes it feel cramped.

Really wish there was a mode where it would be more zoomed in (so no wasted blank space on left/right side), possibly where some of the meny bar item up avove slide away, so more of the coding canvas fills the screen.

Since ipads are smaller than laptops, this would make such a big difference.

Also, add a donate button in the app if you can. Its free, so its great, but i would honesly donate 10 bucks if i could, many more probably would too.

I have been self-learning Python and Python with Excel for the past couple of months using both a windows laptop (surface) and a MacBook Air (which i love), anyway i have been watching YouTube vids and i recently purchased a Python-Excel class on Udemy. Everyone has you installing python, pandas, pip, all kinds of terminals, bash, this and that. I hate installing a lot of stuff on my Windows laptop because things just don’t behave that well. So i have been playing with Pythonista on my iPad and i was looking in the store and stumbled upon Carnets. So after reading the reviews i installed it and was blown away. I didn’t like the way VSstudio worked with Jupiter notebooks, so i tried Carnets and amazing theJupyter notebook loaded. Then i tried some simple stuff and it worked great…excellent i can use my iPad now.
Anyway i purchased this Udemy python-excel course and installed all the programs….I decided to try the Carnets and it worked great for all the openpyxl library and the charting libraries.Just amazing
What a great app. I can’t thank you enough …

I was thinking i found a good learning platform for mobile but this thing Stopped working after 10 mins of usage. Everytime i restart app it says error in yellow. Please fix this

They receiving unauthorized access to photo library. If you’ll check your privacy setting they are absent there. How did Apple confirm this app?

I cannot seem to download spicy or statsmodels. I have researched and tried everything. I suspect some of it is written in C. Any way you can add these packages?

I’m having an issue where the app keeps opening any ipynb file as a txt file. Why does it keep adding the .txt extension on its own? Very frustrating and until then, unusable for me.
