Beaker Notebook vs Station

Open Source Polyglot Data Science Tool

The Beaker Notebook is a new open source tool for research and data science. It's advanced UI allows you to focus on your data and your science, instead of getting frustrated by your tool. We designed it to be polyglot from the ground up. That is, a single notebook may contain code from multiple different languages that communicate with one another through a unique feature called autotranslation. You can set a variable in a Python
cell and then read that variable in a subsequent R cell, and everything just works, magically. Beaker comes with built-in support for Python, R, Javascript, Scala, Groovy, Julia, Clojure, and K.

One app to rule them all

Browsers have evolved to become the central way we do pretty much anything: shopping, scheduling, invoicing, monitoring, calling, texting, reading, watching, listening, writing, sharing: [you name it].

Along the way, as millions of humans were shifting to the browser as their main work tool, it started to show some weaknesses. That is why we built Station: to ease people's workday by centralizing all their web tools in a neat & permanent interface that allows them to be 10x more productive at work.
