I'd love to be able to link to nbviewer://~/path/to/notebook/notebook.pynb and have it open an instance of that notebook. I believe this only requires setting a plist variable, as defined in Apple's docs here.

There is a clear explanation of the spec on the nbformat page. There's also a JSON spec for both v3 and v4. There's a few things we're not supporting - collapsed, scrolled, errors,

Idea for enhancing the documentation in README.md:

You might want to mention in https://github.com/tuxu/ipynb-quicklook#getting-started that if the user copies to his local ~/Library/QuickLook/ instead of the global folder /Library/QuickLook, that then nothing will work.

I stumbled over this, as I normally prefer to install in my local user's folder.

The actual math behind Newton's method is not complex at all, but I would definitely spend more time describing the code aspect of everything to students. In this notebook I feel as though there is a lot going on so it is kind of hard to keep-up.

With two extensive examples available now, we can begin to develop a common framework to present examples of Cortix on notebooks. Please give it some thought so we collect various pieces of visualization codes we have developed so far and package into Cortix. Thanks.
