<div dir="ltr">If you haven't used IPython in a while, you might be surprised to find that it can use a web browser as an IDE. They have separated out the frontends of their interfaces (console, qtconsole, and notebook) from their backend (called a kernel).
We've written a kernel that allows our Calico system to use any of our languages (including IronPython) through their frontends.
<div><br>
</div>
<div>(This doesn't use the IPython Python codebase... we have written our own interface in C#, which might be generally useful for IronPython.)</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>You can get a feel for how this works is by checking out some of our notebooks:</div>

</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>We don't have the nice pipeline provided by numpy and matplotlib, but we are developing our own set of tools; see for example:</div>

<div>We have full support for IPython 2.0 (just released) including the new widgets. You can find out more information, and install directions here:</div>
