Learning

When migrating documentation from Jupyter Book 1 to Jupyter Book 2, URL structures change dramatically and break external links. We spent some time createing a re-usable tool to solve this problem across multiple projects.

One of our favorite things to see: communities learning from and building on each other’s work! MAAP recently contributed infrastructure configuration inspired by EarthScope’s approach to handling authentication tokens. Both communities need to pass OAuth tokens into user environments so their SDKs can access protected data - and MAAP adapted EarthScope’s pattern to fit their needs.

Documentation is what turns open source code into products that people actually want to use. We recently spent a few days refactoring the Jupyter Book documentation to prepare for the upcoming Jupyter Book 2 release, and we’re excited about how much clearer the docs have become!

We wanted to share a short vignette about two of our communities learning from one another. At the latest Project Pythia community meeting, Project Pythia met with representatives from ICESat-2 to share learning about notebooks and cookbooks in educational settings.

If you’ve worked with GitHub Actions in open source projects, you might encounter a hard-to-debug error where repository secrets are simply empty. That’s probably because the PR is from a forked repository!
