Yes, that's not a bad idea.
The highest priority is adding the option of using your existing Python as the kernel for notebooks so you can use all your normal libraries inside your notebooks. That way you don't have to worry about the Python inside Pineapple. Going all the way and removing Python entirely is possible but adds a bit of risk since the notebook server is in Python, so any incompatibilities in versions could prevent Pineapple from opening at all.

Yes, this is what I meant. If there's anyway I can help, let me know.
Workaround solution that I just set up on my Mac. Haven't tested much to see if anything breaks so make sure to back up the bundled python install in step 2:
This now seems to work seamlessly for python3 directly by symlinking the "Frameworks" directory in the app bundle to the corresponding folder in the desired system version of python3.
@guygma What exactly did you symlink? I have anaconda installed. I tried symlink "Frameworks" folder to anaconda/ and anaconda/bin/, neither of which worked.
Hi,
Would it be possible to have a GUI only version? What I mean is a distribution that simply uses whatever I already have installed on my system without the need to have (and manage) yet another Python distribution?
Best,
Bruno
