User reviews

Worked first time I tried it; very useful. I use this because GitHub is very inconsistent viewing Jupyter notebooks. I open the raw page from the notebook on GitHub, then click on this extension and it just works. Thanks for this.

really helpful while github always failed to load ipynb.

Works great on Chrome 70.0.3538.77 It is just a simple convenience tool that saves you from having to cut and paste links into http://nbviewer.jupyter.org/
