I got some buttons and an input dialog with no instructions

And some dummy data with examples would be nice

Thanks for the issue! We actually have all these things available but when you're dropped into a notebook there is no real indication of what to do next. We should figure out how to handle this a lot more explicitly.

lol "Iodide version: How do i find this" - @bcolloran this is a pretty important issue to add, if we're using this issue template.

hamilton commented 6 years ago

bcolloran has a great tutorial notebook that landed in a recent PR. We should also surface this tutorial in the docs so it is obvious how to get started.

bcolloran commented 6 years ago

i'll take on the task of making sure that the demo notebook is deployed as the landing page.

mdboom commented 6 years ago

Yeah, demo notebook as landing page is a good quick fix. It would be fun to use something like "Bootstrap Tour" eventually to give users a quick walk through of the interface.
