Jupyter notebooks are a powerful tool used in education and research. You can write small snippets of Python code and observe the result on screen, combine with paragraphs of text, using Markdown. Carnets provides a complete, stand-alone, implementation of Jupyter notebooks. Everything runs on your device, using the embedded Python interpreter; you do not need an internet connection. You can chose between Jupyter notebooks and the more advance Jupyterlab using Settings. Numpy, Sympy, Matplotlib, Pandas, lxml, bokeh, nbextensions (including ipywidgets) and many other packages are pre-installed. To see the full list of installed packages, type "%pip list" in a code window. You can add more packages using "%pip install packageName", but only if they are pure Python.

Verdict
The clearest difference is update cadence: Store Redirect at every 5 days against Carnets's every 2 months. Store Redirect also leads on device support (6 vs 3). Carnets's advantage is rating (4.6 vs 4.4). On price, review sentiment, ratings volume and ads there is nothing between them.
