Thanks for the link Matt.
For me how-tos and tutorials are kind of mixed and I think that the examples don't work well to create a good boundary (teaching a small child how to cook and a recipe in a cookery book can do kind of the same). Also learning and understanding are not good boundaries for Tutorials and explanation. I would say that, following the context, one is procedure oriented and the other is context oriented (but both help to learning and understanding).
Anyway, is a good resource to think how to improve technical writing.
Cheers,
Offray

I was happy when I read that Leo now supports jupyter notebooks. But I've tried to go through the documentation carefully and I can't discover what the support consists of. How can Leo enhance how I use a jupyter notebook?
The sort of thing I envisage goes:"Can I do this useful (for my end purpose) thing with Leo?"
Scripting seems to be another candidate: start with an ability that a newbie can see an immediate use for, and demonstrate the script that accomplishes it.
Okay, the basic question: What is a very simple .leo file that will create a .ipynb file for a notebook with one markdown cell and one code cell that reports the outcome of some calculation?
... to break Tutorials into "for the committed" and "for the curious". In the latter, experienced Leo people could be encouraged to write simple examples of "How this Leo feature helps me to accomplish the things I actually use a computer for."
