Haha, thanks for the introduction. Someone linked this on Twitter and I have to say you've got a nice channel going! Joined as a patron member, let me know if you need any help with getting differential equation (or anything SciML related) training materials together. I'll be watching how this progresses with anticipation.

Great video. Highlighting keyboard shortcuts and keys on the top of video and clear explanation is such a delight. Hope you keep on using this video style in the future too.

Thanks, thanks, thanks. You are an amazing teacher. (From Argentina)

It's really exciting to see talented educators use Julia to teach STEM, I'm looking forward to your videos in the future! Awesome video, and thank you for the kind introduction 🌟 Send me an email if you would like to collaborate on your next project! I'm always interested in making Julia fun and accessible to a wider audience

The reactive feature is crazy, cheers Doggo

Welcome back! Thanks for a great intro to Pluto and shop links! Keep it up! Hope to see some simulations/modelling...Thx

The favored way to save a notebook is to use the text field in the top banner of the page (it has "Save notebook..." as placeholder text). You can rely on Pluto to save your work as you go once you fill in the filename in this field, rather than manually exporting the file at the end of your session. This is one of the first things I do when creating a new notebook. While the Live Docs might be in your way for recording your screen in this video, I find them to be unparalleled in their helpfulness. I almost always keep the Live Docs open while I'm coding. It truly is "live" in that you can click or select anything in your code and the documentation will come up for it, showing you what types it works with, examples of how to use it, related functions, and more. I think the Live Docs are a real strong point for Pluto over other environments and I would encourage anyone reading this to give them a shot before you decide to hide them with CSS. If you don't like them, you can always hide it later. The F11 tip was a new one for me! As a result I learned about Ctrl + M as a shortcut for wrapping the contents of a cell in md"""""". I'll probably start using that. Looking forward to the rest of this series! Differential Equations has always been a bit intimidating to me and I've let my math atrophy in the last few years, so I haven't touched it at all. Thanks for another great video!

Thanks for this! I've been hoping you'd take on Pluto, but hitting the Differential Equations package is a bonus. (Finally getting some time to catch up on this series... no spoilers please!)

'If I can learn it, so can you' That's not an assumption I would recommend to make more often.

Gracias. Uso Pluto, y es maravilloso. Aún así, aprendí en este video nuevas cosas.

I'm really enjoying your videos on Julia. I worked on Julia last year and then dropped it for a while. Reviewing my old code is like seeing someone else's stuff. Amazing. I had been using Jupyter Notebooks but after having to reinstall my MacOS and put everything back, the Anaconda and Python overhead seems just too much now. I'm going to use your videos to learn Pluto. So far, I'm not missing Jupyter at all. A note about VS Code. It's a great editor and I use it for other languages. I can get the Julia language server running fine, but the Jupyter Notebook extension won't run. After much frustration, I switched to Pluto.

Thanks a lot!

very usefull

Hey Doggo, good stuff. One correction: you can use pluto .jl files outside pluto as normal .jl files. All the tags that pluto uses to sort precedence are # commented, so don't affect execution. (caveats: need to have packages added. Sliders and UI components don't exist)

It's possible to have SVG cells also. I sometimes like to draw a sketch or diagram of what I am trying to program and to include that drawing in the notebook would be helpful and enhance the documentation.

Unfortunately, Pluto is the reason I stopped trying out Julia. The arbitrary and capricious UI decisions made by the developer and the spineless response by the community leaders to this behaviour was the reason that convinced me that this is not something worth putting any of my time into.
