Notebooks

Notebooks bring code, no-code, and AI together in one place: write Python, build interactive widgets without programming, and ask the built-in AI assistant for help — all in a single document. Work in real time with your team, then deploy your notebook as a data app with one click.

Creating a notebook

The main features of notebooks are:

FeatureDescription
BlocksBuilt using blocks of different types
Layout modesSupports Data app and Scientific layout modes
No-code WidgetsCharts, tables, titles, images, and more — interact with content and display information without programming knowledge
Data sourcesIntegrate data sources to access databases directly

PermissionsShare your notebooks and control who can read, edit, or run them

In the following sections, you will learn how to use notebooks in depth.

Your first notebook​

If you just created your first MINEO project, you have an Examples folder with notebooks that you can check. Now, you will create your first notebook.

  1. In the file explorer, navigate to the folder where you want to create it.
  2. Click the "+" button on the upper right.
  3. Select New... → Notebook.
  4. A new notebook will open, ready to use.

Notebook tutorial​

When you enter your first notebook, you will see a pop-up window with a tutorial. This tutorial will help you understand the interface by walking you through each section and element.

The tutorial is recommended, but you can skip it at any time. If you want to open the tutorial later, click the 'Tutorial' button on the 'Help' menu on the top.
