Notebook is rendered as static html by github - miner_tom - Aug-23-2018
I have been attempting to run a notebook file that was downloaded from github. The error that I get is "Notebook does not appear to be JSON: '\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n\\n<!DOCTYPE html>\\n<html lang...",)".
Been reading that the file is being read by jupyter as "static html" because "When you add Jupyter Notebook or IPython Notebook files with a .ipynb extension on GitHub, they will render as static HTML files in your repository."
Ok, I am not sure how to get past this issue. I have also read "To view a fully interactive version of your Jupyter Notebook, you can set up a notebook server locally. For more information, see Jupyter's official documentation."
I did explore that jupyter documentation but could not find the answer myself. So, my basic question is, is there a way to convert a static html file to a notebook file?
Thank You
Tom

You should install Jupyter (How to install Jupyter notebook) and use it to open .ipynb file (Running the Jupyter notebook)
