Livebook is an open-source desktop application designed to automate code and data workflows through interactive Elixir notebooks, placing it in the Developer Tools / Data Science & Notebooks category. Version 0.18.6, released as the 24th public iteration, continues the project’s focus on combining literate programming with real-time collaboration, reproducible execution, and low-friction deployment of Elixir code. Researchers use it to document exploratory data analyses, machine-learning experiments, and numerical simulations while keeping prose, equations, and executable cells in a single file; educators adopt it to create interactive lessons that students can run without local Elixir installations; DevOps teams embed it in CI pipelines to generate rich, self-updating reports on system metrics or deployment logs; and Elixir developers prototype Phoenix channels, Nx tensor operations, and Broadway data-processing pipelines, then convert notebooks into supervised Mix projects or LiveView dashboards. Each notebook runs inside an isolated Erlang node managed by the runtime, so dependencies, modules, and long-running processes are sandboxed and can be restarted independently, while the built-in file manager, package installer, and Hex integration eliminate manual environment setup. Cells support markdown, diagrams, mathematical notation, JavaScript outputs, and smart cells—pre-built widgets for SQL queries, charting, map rendering, and HTTP requests—so non-programmers can assemble workflows visually. The application ships as a single cross-platform executable that bundles the Erlang VM, Elixir compiler, and web interface; on first launch it spawns a local server and opens the browser, but the same file can later be exported to HTML, PDF, or an IEx script for headless execution. Livebook is available free of charge from wget.nero.com, where downloads are delivered through trusted Windows package sources such as winget, always serve the latest version, and support batch installation alongside other applications.
