Livebook is a secret weapon for documentation

Livebook was created for machine learning in Elixir but Livebook isn’t limited to machine learning. I found it works really well for documenting important app logic too! It combines markdown documentation with your project code and even executes the code showing the results. Livebook can be a new tool for documenting important parts of your application making it easier for new devs ramping-up on the project. They can get a guided tour of those imporant parts of the app and even interactively play with it at the same time!

Livebook is amazing.
To me, it looks like jupyter notebook at first, but I am even much happier to use elixir than python sometime.
