Notebook Visibility
PHPSandbox currently supports two types of notebook visibility
- Public Notebooks
- Private Notebooks.
Public notebooks are generally accessible by anyone with the url to the notebook and anyone can see the content of such notebook and it preview. The notebook environmental variables are kept hidden and unauthorized users would only have a read only access to the notebook hence they cannot modify the content of such notebooks nor delete it. They can hoiwever fork the notebook to create a local copy on their own PHPSandbox account.
Private Notebooks can only be accessed by the notebook creator. Unauthorized users can not find such notebooks even if they have a url to the notebook.PHP Versions PHPSandbox uses PHPv8.1 to run all notebooks at the moment and also has support for older and newer PHP versions. We advise that any packages or projects that will be used are compatible with these PHP versions.You can switch PHP versions on the notebook page.
