We’re huge fans of the IPython shell – it does everything that the normal Python shell does, but adds tons of great features like intelligent autocompletion and object introspection. It’s been an option when you start a Python console for a while, but we felt we’d like to give something back to the team. So as of today, if you want to try IPython and don’t want to install it – or even sign up for PythonAnywhere – there’s an online demo, powered by us :-)
Many thanks to the IPython team for producing such a great tool!
