That's great. SymPy Live is in need of some maintainence. I'm CCing David Li, who has written most of the code.
I think the biggest issue with SymPy Live is the way it does evaluation. Because it runs on the App Engine, which only allows persistence for 60 seconds, commands are re-executed (I don't know the exact behavior, but I think there's also some pickling involved). Honestly, it would be better to run it on something more advanced than the App Engine. SymPy Live was originally written before things like Docker and "cloud computing" existed as they do today. It would be nicer if it just ran on a more persistent session, akin to something like tmpnb. That's a large undertaking, though. Shorter term there are a lot of smaller fixes that would be nice to make, for instance, to improve the behavior on the docs site. You can see the issue tracker for things that need to be fixed. Another big thing that confuses people a lot is when the behavior in the Live shell differs because it is a different SymPy version. Maybe it would be helpful had a bigger message on docs pages other than "latest" that the shell may have different results because it is running version 1.0.
