Automatically open app in new window #57

Open VNDRN opened 4 years ago

VNDRN commented 4 years ago

Would the ability to automatically open the app in a new window be a good enhancement? Or is there a way to do this already?

The link is already generated, so the only work would be to add code to launch the window, and also a flag to make it optional - this could perhaps be controlled by a notebook magic.

I think that 'off' should be the default for the flag. Whilst useful, this functionality is something I might want to turn on at some times, but I wouldn't want a window created each time I reran a cell whilst developing.

This would definitely help in my case. I want to create visually pleasing notebooks where the user doesn't have to interact with code too much. If this option would be implemented, perhaps an additional or consequential option would be only to show the app in a new page if that flag would be set to True (And perhaps not show the output of the app in the notebook itself?
