Jupyter (documentation) is an ecosystem that grew out of IPython.
It uses notebooks (JSON .ipynb files) containing cells with code,
text, etc. These are usually interpreted by the web application, run
locally or remotely, for which kernels provide interpreters for the
various languages used interactively in the notebook.
For notes on kernel creation see Creating Language Kernels for IPython, who created the IHaskell kernel.
Jupyter Hub spawns, manages, and proxies multiple instances of the single-user Jupyter Notebook server.
Graham Dumpleton provides a series of blog posts on how to provide and administer development environments (e.g., for tutorials and workshops), including terminal sessions, run in OpenShift. (This is the workshopper tool.)
