It looks like JupyterHub might be what we're looking for. They claim to be:
A multi-user version of the notebook designed for companies, classrooms and research labs
Based on a quick skim of their OAuth documentation, it might be possible to use the OAuth access token given by Synapse when the user logs in (assuming Synapse is configured as the OAuth provider). You seem to be able to configure post-auth hooks, which we could use to remember the Synapse credentials.
It might be a non-trivial amount of work to get this working, but it could be something that we could reuse across multiple hackathons/workshops.
On the other hand, if students are learning R, shouldn't they also learn to use RStudio? 🤷♀️
Per email with Diana, we will stick with RStudio this year and look into Jupyter (and tidyverse) for next summer. Plan to start earlier next time?
