Uhm it is a hosted not-free service and their FAQ states:

#### Can we self host ReviewNB?

- Yes. If you’re interested in on-prem installation, please [fill this form](https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1zb0riYOlSl-BMs1a1Q_wUEjE8-lZqqwRaA8V-6cpkKs) and we’ll get in touch.

After years waiting for **“The Solution”** I almost think this is never going to happen, all project in this direction either died or are broken.

I prefer [mwouts/jupytext: Jupyter notebooks as Markdown documents, Julia, Python or R scripts](https://github.com/mwouts/jupytext) that automagically sync py script \<\> markdown \<\> notebook and you can put the text only version under git for example.

not only tips, it actually integrates itself with git at least, so that `git diff` automatically uses it. it’s the only way one ever should do a `git diff` on a notebook in a terminal. However, one can use it in a “graphical way” where a web-browser shows the differences between 2 notebooks.
