The **future of notebooks** 📓🔮 is here. We're building the next generation of Observable Notebooks, and we're excited to share a technology preview that you can start using today. 🚀

This is a technology preview, meaning our work isn't done, but we would like you to try it out and give us your feedback. We're taking a local-first approach: our plan is to bring these new notebooks, editor, and AI to the web in the near future, providing seamless collaboration and sharing through the Observable platform.

This is a technology preview, meaning our work isn't done, but we would like you to try it out and give us your feedback. We've taken a local-first approach: we started with our open-source layer and desktop editor, and then expanded to bring these new notebooks, editor, and AI to the web, providing seamless collaboration and sharing through the Observable platform.

To achieve these goals, we've developed an open **notebook file format** and are releasing **Observable Notebook Kit**, an open-source command-line interface (and Vite plugin) for generating static sites from notebooks. You can use Notebook Kit for self-hosting and continuous deployment of notebooks, to deeply integrate notebooks into custom web applications, and more.

In addition to growing notebooks as reusable, extensible technology, we want to improve the experience of authoring notebooks. We are therefore also developing **Observable Desktop**, a desktop application for editing notebooks that brings the magic of Observable Notebooks to file-based workflows.

Notebooks are the _perfect_ environment for coding with AI. The instant feedback you get with reactive coding, the lightweight composability and flexibility of cells, the ability to inspect and tinker to understand what the code is doing, the infinite variety of importable open-source libraries at your fingertips --- notebooks enable AI to perform as a more effective teacher and muse, inviting you to collaborate with it, rather than treating it as a black box code generator.

Eventually, this new editor and AI will be coming to the web, giving you the same great authoring experience for notebooks --- whether you want the convenience of instant sharing via an Observable workspace, or you prefer to work with local files and manage collaboration yourself (say through git).

You won't need Observable Desktop to author notebooks --- you can author notebooks in your preferred text editor, and then preview or build them using Notebook Kit. But our goal is to build the best-in-class editor for notebooks that supercharges your productivity with AI, combined with instant collaboration and sharing in Observable workspaces, together with [Observable Canvases](https://observablehq.com/canvases/) for rapid, cross-functional, visual exploration and presentation of data. We'd love for you to use our open-source, but we're ready for your business, too.
