nb notebook viewing by others

[jev-on]

Hi, is there a way for others to open my notebook for viewing using nb? I have notebooks with technical notes I would like my work colleagues to have access to so they can open the info in Web GUI for browsing.

They won't be using nb for note taking but I want to direct them to use nb for viewing my shared note if possible.

Thank you!

One simple approach is to set a GitHub repository as the remote and keep it synced, and provide access to the GitHub repository.

I'm not familiar with how to do this? Is this (https://xwmx.github.io/nb/#-git-sync ) a good place to start?

Thanks for your help and providing nb!

You're welcome! Yes, that is correct. That section should have all the information necessary to set it up in nb. Let me know if you run into any issues with it.

For other users, should I just point to my existing notebook as the remote git? Since other user will simply be viewing my notes. From my understanding each of the notebook is a git repo, right?

Or, as you mentioned above is it better to setup a remote git that both myself and others will sync to? Should I use this case if both myself and others are wanting to contribute?

Each notebook is a git repository. If you set the remote to a GitHub repository and keep it synced, then other people can view it on github.com, where is automatically renders markdown, or clone it according to the permissions you set through GitHub. Let me know if this answers your questions.
