Cantor Alternatives
Cantor is described as 'front-end to powerful mathematics and statistics packages. Cantor integrates them into the KDE Platform and provides a nice, worksheet-based, graphical user interface. It supports environments for KAlgebra, Lua, Maxima, R, Sage, Octave, Python, Scilab, and Qalculate!'. There are five alternatives to Cantor for a variety of platforms, including Online / Web-based, Mac, Windows, Linux and Self-Hosted solutions. The best alternative is Jupyter, which is both free and Open Source. Other great apps like Cantor are Observable Notebooks (Free), Beaker (Free, Open Source), Kajero (Free, Open Source) and Starboard (Free, Open Source).
- The Jupyter Notebook is a web application that allows you to create and share documents that contain live code, equations, visualizations and explanatory text.
- Free • Open Source
- Mac
- Windows
- Linux
- Online
- Cloudron
- Observable is a better way to code. Discover insights faster and communicate more effectively with interactive notebooks for data analysis, visualization, and exploration.
- 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.
- Kajero is designed to make it really easy for anyone to create good-looking, responsive, interactive documents. Somewhat like Jupyter / iPython notebooks, but for JavaScript!
